Hi,
Well, here is my first scan, and hopefully the pic comes out well enough to aid in the identification. These are from a group of 20 or so I've acquired in the last 4 years that I can't seem to place.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you,

Mobilman44

Mobilman, the stamp with the "three" in the middle is a Swiss postage due stamp. I think your scan is great, but it would help tremendously if you scan one stamp at the time and get rid of all the white space around it. On my screen the images are too small to tell much!

The stamp at botttom left was issued in 1920 in the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, which later became Jugoslavia. This particular stamp, which shows King Petar I, was intended primarily for sale and use in Slovenia, but was valid throughout the Kingdom.

Bottom right was issued in 1921 in Armenia and shows a fisherman at Lake Van.

The bottom right is from Armenia Socialist Republic issued in 1921. It is Scott #287. This is from a set of stamps which were probably not regularly issued.

Oops - took too long and got beat to the punch.

I think the bottom left stamp is from Yugoslavia, Bosnia, Serbia area:

Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes

Look at the 9th stamp. It has the same words as on your stamp:
