Hi Glenn noticed a few volcano stamps from the Philippines that you have not featured and thought you might like. Hope these are useful. They feature on my topical web site which includes Philippine volcanoes where there are some more details of the volcanoes but also some subsidary stamps such as mythical creatures said to reside on a particular volcano and volcanic geology. Introduction page for Volcanoes on Philippine Stamps (topicalphilippines.com),

Thrilled to find this. I have a large-ish worldwide collection and lots of duplicates. I've been thinking of starting a topical collection, and as I am known as "The Volcano" at home (don't ask!), this is perfect for me. How do you organize yours? I am thinking of displaying them by date.....
Thanks for already doing the legwork for me.

I love my new volcano stamp shirt! Everyone should post a photo of them in their shirt in this discussion board.

Tell us about volcanoes you've visited, climbed or admired. Comment on other people's stories. Copy a stamp image from our galleries to highlight your tale.
Such a lovely sunset, can't believe the ash made it all the way to Alice Springs

I'm convinced we can amass images for an entire 1st year university geology course using only volcano stamps. Find a relevant stamp in the 'Themes' galleries, copy and paste it here, and describe the geology element it represents.

Aaland 1993. 2,00mk. Diabase dyke.
This stamp shows a dolerite or diabase dyke (diabase is the preferred name in North America, while dolerite is the preferred name in the rest of the English-speaking world). Such dykes occur in regions of crustal extension and often occur in swarms of hundreds of individual dykes or sills radiating from a single volcanic centre.
Dolerite is a mafic, holocrystalline, subvolcanic rock equivalent to volcanic basalt or plutonic gabbro. Can anyone provide more info?
Hello Omar, sorry for slow reply.
I am not aware of a specific list for postal stationery. If you go to my Homepage and download the Catalogue (excel), have a look at the tab called 'Whitford Stark' and this might have some info for you. This list was compiled by the pioneer volcano stamp collector Jim Whitford-Stark.
Regards, Glenn
