    A nice variation of stamps. The Singapore BTO had me puzzled, even though the clues were there, who knew (not me) - built to order. A set that lives up to its name - quirky.

      Me too. I hoped someone could explain this stamp to me...

    apart from Lady Liberty, I looked up each of these islands and found some very interesting history! I quite like the design of the Clipperton Island stamp.
