Turtles
and Tortoises
The Australian 20c tortoise stamp is part of a series on aboriginal art, which came out in 1971. The African Pancake Tortoise came out in 1977. I have it as a Kenyan, and a Ugandan stamp, since those countries shared stamp designs - please ask if you would like it from one particular country.
The Hawkshead turtle from the Bahamas first came out in 1971, and is quite rare. The Canadian 35c Eastern Spiny Soft-Shelled Turtle is an attractive stamp, but Canadians tended to be a little brutal with their postmarks, so the ones I am offering are the pick of the bunch. The Papuan turtle is relatively common, a very attractive, dramatic stamp.
