This thread has been inactive for more than 1 year. As it happened a friend gave me his late dad's WW collection last week. As I went through various Vario sheets/Countries.....found some Djibouti Rep stamps and picked some to show these beautiful ones, most celebrating an event, including Sir Roland Hill. Since I do not collect this République, they are put aside for a Djibouti Rep (République de Djibouti) collector in our membership ! Adding to the thread Xavier hrdoktorx started... René  |
