Here's a few. First to Estonia, 1921 and 1922, later overprinted/surcharged.  Now we go to Ethiopia. Once again, both these issues were later overprinted. I like the violet posthorn cancellation on the 15c stamp.   Now a short hop across the Gulf of Aden to Yemen. These were later overprinted by republicans during the civil war.  Finally to Iceland and these two stamps from the 1949 charity stamps issue.  |
