stamp created especially for the biggie stamp group's contest 'music'. Depicts a rebec which is an ancient stringed musical instrument played usually for folk dancing of the time. 158x76 size (long double biggie) I had always thought that this particular instrument was a miniature violin, boy was I wrong! It is made from one piece of wood, is a bit pear-shaped and is held under the armpit or in the elbow instead of under the neck.
