France: Priority labels, New?

Some time ago I got some labels from France. When I was about to put them into a folder, I noticed that they looked different then the ones I already have.

Received in 2011. They come from a sheet.

Year: ?, Self-adhesive.





















As you can see the color is much darker and the front is also different.

Some more labels from South Africa I just got in the mail today. Unlike the other labels I have already posted from South Africa (See here) these are lighter in color and Self-adhesive.

Received in 2011.

USA: Priority

Priority labels from USA. These labels are much bigger than the other Priority labels I have already posted (See here) and they don't have round corners.

Year: 2004, Self-adhesive.

Greece: Airmail labels

I just got these labels from Greece. The thing is I have been told that airmail labels are no longer used in Greece, now I'm not so sure. Maybe someone can help out? Maybe they are leftovers from when they were in print?

They look like the ones listed in the airmail labels catalogue from 1987.

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.
