I am drooling over those Ultramar stamps. They are Spanish Colony stamps for use among their colonies. Ultramar means "overseas". Ultramar was used particularly with reference to the Phillipines, though I can't tell for sure without my catalog.

I don't have a catalogue at hand right now, but I think you'll find the Bosnias pictured in the next-to-last scan under Austria, as military stamps (Scott prefix "M").

Someone will correct this if it isn't right...

You are correct. These were issued by Austria, while occupying Bosnia during WWI. (ironic, in that Bosnia was a "condominium" territory of the Austro-Hungarian Empire at the time) And, although the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand Franz occurred in Sarajevo, Bosnia was virtually un-touched during WWI.
