Images of Books on Stamps
I am interested in putting a collection of stamps together that have images of books together for my sister, an independent bookstore owner.
I am having trouble searching as I only get books of stamps or books on stamps.
Anybody seen any stamps that depict books, bookstores, booksellers?

Or Russia 5826a depicting James Fenimore Cooper’s Last of the Mohicans?
Search "book" and filter it for "Topicals" you will find many examples.

You can go from a simple Book Store Corner Card Return to spectacular color engraving art work. Good Luck in this venture.. Dan
A few GB stamps to add to the list (all SG #, sorry I don't know the Scott #): 1384-5 Welsh Bible, 2116 King James Bible, 2121 Book - good image!, 2236 open book, 1196 IT (library in centre panel), 2750-6 Harry Potter book covers, 2797-2802 James Bond covers, 2894 Penguin book and 3999-4006 Ladybird books. All these show books on the stamps. Expanding to illustrations from books, authors, characters - endless!
With all those listed by everyone here, you should be able to give your sister a small album full!
