I'm not necessarily putting out a request to buy, there's a few stamps I can't find anywhere for sale and don't think I have ever seen them on SOR. C33 is a souvenir sheet, C39 is that sheet with an overprint and C24 - C29 is a series of Cuban airmail stamps. They are not super expensive ( $20ish ), they just never seem to show up. Has any other Cuba collector had the same problem, they are rather difficult to locate! Any comment or I just looking in the wrong place? There was another souvenir sheet I had trouble finding but eventually bought it on SOR - C126a. By the way, my cut off for Cuba is 1955. That's where VolIII of Scott's International stops.
P.S. I do notice that the Incredible Antonius Ra Collection has them. Whenever I need to see what a stamp actually looks like I can usually find it there. I really hope your collection stays together and goes to a Philatelic museum when you are no longer with us - may that day be far in the future!!

re: Cuba airmail C39 , C33 and C24 - C29

I haven't checked Hipstamp for Cuba in a long time - I'll do that right now. Thanks!
I just bought #39 and will get the rest at the end of the month!
