Golden Tabby Tiger (Panthera tigris) 2 - Stamps from Zazzle.com

My new design, approved today!
Golden Tabby Tiger (Panthera tigris) 2 Stamps from Zazzle.com

"golden tabby tiger is one with an extremely rare color variation caused by a recessive gene and is currently only found in captive tigers. 
Like the white tiger, it is a color form and not a separate species. In the case of the golden tiger, this is the wide band gene; while the white tiger is due to the color inhibitor (chinchilla) gene. 
There are currently believed to be fewer than 30 of these rare tigers in the world[citation needed], but many more carriers of the gene.
While no official name has been designated for the color, it is sometimes referred to as the strawberry tiger due to the strawberry blonde coloration. 
The golden tiger's white coat and gold patches make it stand out from the norm. 
Their striping is much paler than usual and may fade into spots or large prominent patches. 
Golden tigers also tend to be larger and, due to the effect of the gene on the hair shaft, have softer fur than their orange relatives.
Like their white cousins, all golden tabby tigers have mainly Bengal parentage, but are genetically polluted with the genes of the Amur tiger via a part-Amur white tiger called Tony, who is a common ancestor of almost all white tigers in North America. 
The suggestion that this coloration is caused through the deliberate breeding of Amur tigers with Bengal tigers is a popular myth founded on this fact. 
All golden tigers appear traceable to one of Tony's male descendants, Bhim."

Tigers - Zazzle personalized stamps: comparison of 6 different designs




Comparison of 6 different Zazzle stamps with tigers of 4 color varieties (striped white, stripeless white, golden tabby and regular). I have designed and already bought 6 different sheets of 20 identical (designwise) stamps. But each individual stamp is uniquely encoded in the IBI (information-based indicia)- the black and white little squares.
I (temporarily) applied these six stamps onto a transparency sheet. Besides this group scan, I will use them, after cutting the stamps onto individual transparency rectangles, for maximum cards projects, demos, comps, experiments.

"Dorincard: Blogger Dorin C is a stamp and postcard fanatic, and luckily he's more than pleased to write prolifically and charmingly about his obsession. He has a particular bent for stamps with wild mammals on them, but his blog demonstrates an affinity for stamps of all forms and backgrounds, as long as they offer a special narrative that's worth sharing with his readers.

    Postcards and stamps, mainly featuring mammals and birds but Dorincard also has other creations
    and interests he likes to share.
    His enthusiasm for Maximum cards (a postcard and a similar themed stamps sent through the
    postal system) shines through.
    He shows how he gets the right card, stamp and postmark together.
    Visiting his site you will also learn things about the natural world told with a dry sense of humour,
    possibly with a play on words, and a unique style of headings.
    Topical and informative both for the enthusiast and casual visitor.
