Set of six, one stamp shows a physical map of the island.

This stamp was issued to commemorate the first anniversary of the ending of a border dispute between Paraguay and Bolivia. The 500 pesos airmail stamp was issued in 1939. The inscription roughly translate "An honorable peace is worth more than all military triumphs". (World leaders please take note). The stamp was postmarked at the capital of Asuncion on June 11 or 17. 1942. The map shows the Chaco region that was in dispute.

Anguilla wasn't always independent. It was part of St. Kitts Nevis & Anguilla but there was some intense dissatisfaction concerning fiscal matters and their representation in the world by those mostly on St. Kitts who spoke for them beyond their island. In 1967 the locals declared their independence and in the process created their first set of postage stamps. They overprinted existing stocks on hand of the then current St. Kitts Nevis & Anguilla stamps. The stamps were very popular and stocks on hand were very low. Some values sold out quickly making complete sets a challenge.
The design is a map of Anguilla and the postmark is of a place found in the middle of the island: VALLEY (November 25, 1967) . The location of Valley is depicted on the map. The denomination is $2.50 which would have served as a stamp for parcels, I surmise.

Seychelles reprised this design in 1954 with the change of the monarch. It is not so much a map of Seychelles but rather a wall map showing where the islands are located relative to Africa, Arabia and India. This particular 18 cent stamp was posted in 1954 from the capital, VICTORIA.

In 1954, Nauru issued this five shilling stamp showing a map of their island. It was also known as Pleasant Island. The engraved stamps showed all the districts that comprised the political jurisdictions on the island. Nauru is located in the Central Pacific as the postmark would tell us if only the cancel was socked on the nose.

This half-penny Ghana postage stamp was issued in March 1957. It commemorates the Independence of the African country by means of an overprint. It was postmarked in ACCRA twelve days after the nation became independent. The design shows a map of West Africa and highlights where Gold Coast was located. Gold Coast was renamed Ghana upon becoming independent.

In 1938, British Guiana issued this four cent stamp which answered the question "where in the world was this country located?" The engraved postage stamp appears to have been used at a SAVINGS BANK N.A . if I am reading the postmark correctly.
