France: Economique sheet

Economique sheet from France. The labels are quite big. I think they may have been used on big letters or packages. The sheet is almost a4.

I'm unsure of the year, but they look like the ones used in the mid-90s start 00'. Let me know if you have any info.

Year: ?, Self-Adhesive.

Sweden: Prioritaire and Economique sheet

 Another sheet from Sweden. The sheet has 30 labels in total.

There is no date on the sheet, only an id number, but I think it may be from 1992, as they look like these from the booklet.

Denmark: Prioritaire A and Economique B

The labels that came out in 2003/2004 in pads of 40 labels were also available on rolls (of around 400 labels, I think)

The only difference is that while the Economique on pads came out in 2004, the ones on the roll came out in 2003.

Denmark: Prioritaire A and Economique B

Now for something a bit interesting. Remember these Danish labels that came out in 2011 on sheets of 18 labels.

Well in 2011 2 other sheets were published. They have the same date and id number on them as the others I have posted, but look different. These only have 14 labels on the sheet.

I do wonder why they published 2 that year.

Year: 2011, Self-adhesive.

Denmark: Economique B

These are Economique labels that came out in 2014. They come on sheets with 16 labels.

These labels are not in use anymore as all mail is now 'priority' airmail in Denmark.

I do think it's funny they have 16 labels on this sheet while they on the Prioritaire sheet that came out the same year only have 12.

Year: 2014, Self-adhesive.

Liechtenstein: Prioritaire and Economique

Prioritaire and Economique labels from Liechtenstein. They both come in sheets of 10 labels and are quite big. I think they may be for parcels.

I do love when postal services put dates on their labels.

Denmark: Prioritaire A and Economique B, NEW!

Today I was at the post office to get some stamps and more labels.
To my surprise the labels I got had a new design! And they had just come out.

Year: 2011, Self-adhesive.

Year: 2011, Self-adhesive.

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.

I got these labels on a sheet of 18. Getting labels on a sheet is also a new thing, the older labels never came on sheets, but always on pads or rolls.
