Denmark: Labels from stamp booklets

Recently some Economique B labels was released in a stamp booklet called 'vintereventyr'. The stamp value is only for letters sent in Denmark, so I don't think they will release any Prioritaire A as they are not used for letters inside Denmark, only on international ones.

Year: 2011, Self-adhesive.

Switzerland: Priority labels

Big labels from Switzerland. They come in strips of 5 labels.

Year: 2011, Gummed.*


*I'm pretty sure the design have been printed before and is not new. The thing I have noticed about Switzerland labels is that when they print a new batch of the same labels they get a new year instead of the year the design first came out.

France: Priority labels, postage paid

I got some more labels from France in the mail today. I hadn't seen the labels before today and I find them really interesting. They look like the other 'Prioritaire' labels, except the labels are kind of split in 2. The white side explaining that the postage had been paid* (*As far as I understand)

The labels are smaller in size and have a darker color. These also have a new font and and the labels have a shiny surface. The B on the green labels have also changed side.

Denmark: Stamp Booklet

Back in 2001 several stamp booklets in Denmark were released with prioritaire labels.
So far I have seen 3 different labels designs from 2001. Since they a long out of print, they were a bit hard to find.

Adding labels to a stamp booklet was pretty much a one time thing. I have never seen other booklets than those released in 2001 with labels.

Booklet:

I will be posting the other designs too as I get them in the mail.
