Greetings. I cannot seem to find any additional information on the below stamp, other than what is on the stamp itself:

Image Not Found

I am particularly interested in a catalog number for it, as well as an issue date as I would like to properly record it in my collection. After a lengthy search online I came up empty handed. At Wits End Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

re: Oman Airmail Stamp

I'm willing to be corrected on this, but I think this is definitely in the cinderella category.

If it were "Sultanate of Oman", it would be considered legitimate and catalogued by the majors. But the "State of Oman" is not catalogued, not even by Michel, which is often lenient in what it includes.

Here's a little bit I found about the stamps from there:

https://www.stampcommunity.org/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=55629

There are listed in the cinderella category on Colnect.

Here's the individual stamp:

Here's the whole "country" in context. Your stamp would be their internal catalogue number of "OM 1969-09":

Hope that's a bit helpful!

Thank you so much Philatarium! That is extremely helpful indeed. I did wonder about the "State of Oman" but admit I never thought about cinderellas. I'm off to go down all the rabbit holes you provided. Thank you once again! Thumbs Up
