      I would say the Edith Cavell stamp is definitely a cinderella because it has no value marked on it anywhere, meaning it was simply a commemorative design that couldn't be used as postage.

      here's some info on the Cavell case: http://ansmagazine.com/Spring06/Cavell

      Pretty fascinating story - and I'd never even heard of her before yesterday. Thanks for posting the stamps!
