"GBStamps.com - The Machin FAQ." I am surprised that SO MANY stamp collectors/philatelists are fascinated by collecting THEM. There are so many OTHER interesting subjects of stamps - WHY focus on MACHINS? Oh, well...

I have a few MACHINS, and...I'm done with them.
I don't sweat for more.
Same head, different colors...some other minor variations...:)

Rather narrow.
