Hi there! I used to go Letterboxing back in 2012 and I have some stamps that I was wondering if someone could identify for me? I’d like to write down the titles into my notebook. They are all from the Twin cities area. Thanks!

Describe each stamp (width & height) and the image. There are enough of us that have been around since 2012. We'll help!

Go to the Letterboxes Column in the Toolbar at the top of the Atlasquest Page and choose Simple Search. Do a Place Search for Minneapolis-or St. Paul--and only look at the ones planted at the appropriate years (2012?)

1) Looks to be a fox with a lantern.

2) Looks like a troll under a bridge.

3) It’s a framed tree that’s growing on a cliff.

4) Hibiscus Flower

5) A round one that reminds me of a letter V.

6) A football and second stamp is Go Vikes. I think I know what this one is.

7) Clover with the Popes hat.

8) Is another flower but I’m not sure on the type unfortunately.

9) Albert Einstein

I’m unfamiliar with this board. If there’s a way for me to post photos I can take a few as I’m not the best with descriptions. Thanks for your help!

Please don't post pictures of the stamps on AQ. Spoilers are frowned upon. If you want to, email privately with the people who have offered to help. That would be a better approach than showing other people's stamps in a public forum.

I know the first four--will send a private AQ mail with the details.

I’m still looking to identify 3. 😁

1) It’s a circular stamp that has what looks like a fancy letter V or maybe part of a pulse/heartbeat almost.

2)Shamrock with a staff and pope hat.

3) Flower, I’m thinking it’s a Lily of some kind.
