Japon
Excellent cover from Japan with one of the most awesome post stamps I have seen. The stamps are old one from 1966 the others I can't really tell, but the post mark with what I believe is a samurai warrior holding a katana, very nice :D
Sudafrica
First I have to say, thank you time for not stopping and days for passing, 12 de Noviembre dia del cartero is gone, no more horrible stamps on my covers, this is the last one.
From South Africa with 3 stamps, two of them have the mascot of the world cup, no normal shaped stamps but very nice ones, the other one has a coral fish.
Thanks Marten.
España
The stamp is part of a very pretty souvenir sheet, called Tapestry National Heritage (I think that is the proper translation) issued on 2010. I personally love souvenir sheets and when I see someone at the post office tear them apart I just look the other way cause I think then they are just wasting them, and when I have to tear one apart I sit there and think about it for half an hour hahaha thinking about the pros and cons, but thats just my philatelic state of mind. Gracias Emilio.

Now this is the first cover I am posting with a stamped image of a mail man being chased by a dog, 12 november is the day of the post man/woman and they stamp all the letters with this and it says "12 DE NOVIEMBRE DIA DEL CARTERO COOPERA CON EL". So I get all my covers with this stamp, at least they are careful enough to put it someplace blank or on the back.

An excellent cover from Croatia featuring a complete series issued in march of 2010, about fruits, it fools the eye because you think it is perforated to make a circle form stamp, but they are not, the dots are printed ;. The other stamp from 2010, just below the fruit ones, is from a series of 4 stamps with the picture of some embroidery design. The last is from 2004 is a croatian town named Virovitica with the picture of The Pejačević Palace. Thanks Josip!!!

I got this cover from a fellow Mexican, and it's very interesting because he used stamps from 1977 and 1978 which cover the expenses to send an ordinary domestic letter of less than 20 grams. I think this is awesome because I didn't know one could do that! (use stamps so old). Thanks for the cover and the knowledge José.

This two covers are from the same person (Thanks Javier!)and I really liked them, the first one uses stamps from 1972, 1992 and 2008, it would have been nice to have something from the 80's don't you think?
The second cover uses mostly definitive stamps from 2003, 2004, 2007 and 2008 and there is a 1c, 2c, 3c, 4c, 5c and 10c, nice ;). The other two staps are Kwanzaa issued on 2009 and Horse Racing issued on 1973.
Both covers with nice red postmarking.
