In my quest to make an album page of every country/territory/entity in the world, I recently received these Van Diemens Land and Tasmania stamps I won on ebay. They are not perfect, but still beautiful classics, and I paid very little for them.

Gaff, Van Diemens is No 13 (or 31 trimmed), while the Tasmania is No 16 (or 34 trimmed, but I doubt it). I paid a few bucks for the pair.

I am NOT an expert in Aust. or the States so I would rely on one of our more versed members.
But, If I remember correctly this issue was spaced to close together for it to be a trimmed 34.
