Two from opposite sides of the world, or thereabouts anyway...
I used to collect Tuvalu until the Leaders of the World sham was issued. Here are the stamps on piece that more than likely carried mint copies of the same thing to me! I hated that series with a vengeance! No info on the stamps as these aren't worth it. I still see these from various countries for sale.
And the FRG with a 55¢ 75th anniversary of the transatlantic speed record voyage of the Steamship Bremen. This is the self-adhesive version from a booklet of 20! 20? That's some big booklet. Canada does 10, which is more than enough, if you ask me!
