Vying for the honour of being the most random stamp in my collection, and indeed the inspiration for a new category of 'random stamps'. This was, I assume, sent to me by mistake.It arrived in the post with another stamp I'd ordered. Anyway, I like it. So it stays. At first I was puzzled by the words that seem to reference the Antarctic but show a polar bear alongside the Adelie Penguin. A bit of time on Google and Google Translate and it turns out that Max Douguet was a distinguished French sailor who spent time at both poles. The stamp was issued in 1991.
