Romantic Couples of the World

Tarzan and Jane

Denominated Bluebird Love Stamp

This individually hand painted First Day Cover continues my Romantic Couples series for Love stamp issues. Featured this time is Tarzan, Lord of the Jungle, and his lovely soul mate Jane. They are surrounded by the lush and beautiful African forest, and the cachet art turned out just right. Overhead a black panther sprawls on a tree limb, and a colorful tropical song bird contributes his voice to the sounds of the jungle. Its proximity to the two bluebirds on the new stamp works very nicely.

As you can imagine, watercolors are the perfect way to bring this scene to life, and each and every cachet is the result of meticulous hand painting. This Collins FDC is bound to be a favorite of collectors (who doesn't like the stories, the premise, and the mystique of Tarzan?), and I look for this one to be a quick sell-out. I also think this gem will be especially hunted by future Collins collectors, so don't miss adding it to your collection.

Now ready, hand on knife and staring unafraid toward his next adventure, is the guardian of the jungle — Tarzan and Jane. Collins 04101 — $13.25.
