Please print a copy and submit it with your stamps. Please pack stamps according to type in individual bags or envelopes. Only stamps in mint condition with no franking marks will be accepted. When you send the package in, ensure you include your name and address together with your packing list.

'The Eaten by Snails' Envelope Series
This is a collection of 6 limited edition envelopes inspired by the Post Office Handbook and Diary 2007.
The first of the sequence is 'Eaten by Snails', an item of mail that has apparently been posted in a damper part of Ankh-Morpork. Snails have colonised the box, attracted by the Field of Cabbage stamps. Rather than take the blame for the condition of the item, the Post Office has stamped 'Eaten by Snails' on the envelope.
The envelope bears both the standard Cabbage Field 50p stamp and the Flagrant Cabbage variant. There are 100 of these artefacts, each presented in a clear acetate box, and they can be traded for 25 Green Cabbage Trading Stamps.
Once you have redeemed 'Eaten by Snails' you can move onto 'Dribbled on by Toads'. (The toads were introduced into post boxes to eat the snails - well it made sense at the time.) There are 90 of these, they contain an interesting artefact and stamp, and are also presented in clear acetate.
Next comes 'Snake Warning' (to eat the toads) and there are 80 of these. Followed by 'Defecated Upon by Mongeese' (70), 'Hamster Bedding' (60) and finally 'Nibbled by Unknown Marine Creatures' of which there will be just 50*. They must be collected in sequence and in each is worth 25 Cabbage Trading Stamps. They will be issued at intervals and can be reserved in advance by lodging the necessary trading stamps with us. They will continue until they have all run out, and if we run out of any letters in the sequence we will send the next available.
* Please note: all are now fully subscribed.
Only 500 sheets have been printed.
