I did not know there was a Mafia Island. Just thought it was a slang term! I wonder if the Mafia group of people started from this island.Great overprint!

Why King George V? Again, this is why

Tanganyika SG84, woefully centred, but gorgeous. I desperately want the high values in this set.





Tanganyika SG105





And last for now, St Kitts Nevis SG29
