Description

The listing, Boy Scout 1907 - 1957 Jubilee Jamboree has ended.

These are NOT U.S. Postal issue. I believe they are Australian. No denomination on them. Could not find them in any catalog. Nice collector piece.

Questions & Comments

These are "Cinderellas"; not postage stamps (un-official) but collectible commemorative seals for the 9th International Boy Scout's Jamboree.

Thank you, I stated they were not postal issue.

I just meant to add (for anyone looking) what they are, as well as what they aren't. "Cinderellas" are often difficult to find in the usual stamping literature. I haven't seen these before and there was only one official Postage Stamp issued for the 9th Jamboree by England.
[ I wonder if these might be English, rather than Australian, since Sutton Park is in Birmingham, England where I remember reading in the Sunday papers this was held during the summer of 1957.]

I assumed Australia because they were filed there.

You were right it was held in Birmingham, England in August of 1957.
