The Muse of Oranges

Since I first began as an artist I have painted images of Madge,
whose name is short for Imagination. She is my psyche, my muse,
my inspiration. I long ago wrote of her realm, the land of
Cantharidia.

I always associated Madge with the orange. Her consort I styled
as William Earl of Blackberry.

Cyberstamps From the Moon

These stamps exist only in cyberspace. As such I define them as
'cyberstamps.'  Although these stamps were designed in 2009, they
will not be issued until the 23rd century, unless by some fluke in
space time they materialize on earth due to the demands of
contemporary philatelists.

Cyberstamps From the Moon


Excerpts from the Writings of Quantus Qwo
Postmaster General of the Moon

'By the 23rd century by earthly reckoning, the Republic of the Moon
had a fully functional postal administration. Protocommemorative
stamp issues complemented the definitive stamps in common useage.
The Loonese Postal Administration had it's headquarters in Moonton,
the captial city of the Moon.'

Quantus Qwo also writes:

'The monetary system of the Loonese is based on the Quark Standard:
77 Asteris equals 1.22 Megs. Math is done by paramental osmosis
among the educated Loonese.'

Quantus Qwo observes:

'Compact three wheeler Lektrikabs deliver the mail each morning to the
Loonese suburbs. . . Cameos of the Lunar Cinderella appear on the coins
and stamps of the Republic of the Moon, as she is the national allegory of
Liberty. . .The Loonese do not consider themselves colonists, as the Moon
is found in Free Space.'


Micronational Stamps From the Future

On this blog I have previously posted a few artistamps from the
Republic of the Moon. The stamps shown here are a bit different, as
they only exist in Cyberspace, which is to say--on computer file, as
they have not yet been printed on paper.

My earlier editions of Loonese stamps were printed in limited
editions of 100 copies each. I created a stamp book, 'The Republic
of the Moon,' which is now out of print. The book contained
protectively mounted stamps, signed by the artist.

Quantus Qwo failed to mention that these stamps are truly
'protocommemoratives' insofar as they were designed some 
two hundred years or so before they were issued.
