Which I also didn't see till---
Tore Rye Andersen:
"In fact, this stamp also makes an (unnamed) appearance on p. 231, in
Grandmaster Cohen's discussion of Queen Victoria's reluctance to face her
own mortality:
"Now, we have also Victoria's unbending refusals to consider the passage of
Time, for example her insistence for more than sixty years that the only
postal image of her be that of the young girl on the first adhesive stamps
of 1840, the year of dim young Oxford's assassination attempt."
Like the "Oedipal Spectacle" on pgs 978 & 979, another inadvertent
commemoration of an anarchist event via the postal system.
Which begs the question: Is the Grandmaster Cohen an ancestor
of Genghis Cohen?
