Not a terribly difficult or expensive "country" to collect; other than the Scott #12 to which I give Shermae a big shout out for finding one somewhere, somehow.

Enjoy.

Bravo! Andy.
A completion.
Nice to see a full set of the "colonial soldier"

Sc#12 only lists as c$1.80 , must be one of those inexpensive, but hard to find stamps.

Indeed it was, and why I gave a virtual fist-pump to Shermae for finding one. I bought his breakfast before a local show when he handed it to me. And was happy to do so.

He said I looked like a kid in a candy store when I saw it. Love this hobby for moments like that.

Very nicely done. I believe the souvenir sheet is not that easy of a find, either.

I'm trying to complete the country myself, except as used. So this is inspirational. The first postage dues are probably an impossibility. I'm sure the oddball values in the definitives will be something of a challenge, perhaps as they might have been for you.

Thank you HY. I have some duplicates; so if you will email a list of what you are looking for to me, I might be able to help you fill in some holes.

Thanks very much! It'll be a week or two before I pull together a list, but I will send one to you.

And thank you Oz, Rog, and Mrtia. Much appreciated. Will post some more in the near future. French Guinea being (hopefully) next. Ecuador Air mails maybe as well.

Hy - The souvenir sheet was not that hard to find. Or maybe just got lucky finding a MNH?

This is a beautiful collection and beautifully presented. Thanks for showing it. I enjoy looking for cancels for French West Africa, as they can range from Ivory Coast and Senegal to Mauritania -- what are now 7 or 8 different countries.
