I don't know if it's a good idea, but here it goes:

I think we should have a thread that shows the first stamp from every country, province, state, colony, territory, etc. that ever existed (A-Z). I know for Australia and USA, etc. there are many stamps, but we could choose one that is the most famous, that everyone would know, and post a scan here. I'll start with Afghanistan:

Here I have a link of most countries: Countries A-Z

Erik,

We did in fact have a topic called "First Issues" that was started a couple of years ago but hasn't been active for a while.

Have a look through this link, there are some nice one's in it:

Erik,

Keep this topic going as that previous topic was random and didn't have all the first issues.

Remember that every philatelically related post adds to the interest and relevance of the board :idea:

OK, Tony. These stamps need to be A-Z. I think the first one should have been Aden.

Hello to all who read this,
being a newbie to this all, let me ask :
After WW1 The countries Roumania, Hungary and Austria pushed around their frontiers. So for example in my collection of Hungary I find stamps for Arad, Banat/Bacska, Barany a.s.o.
But I do not have the nos. 1 . Would these regions (not countries) qualify? If yes, could somebody show those items, please?!
I'll be around in a day or so with Bavaria - as soon as I have found
my fake. The original was too expensive for me up to now.

As we're into the B's I suppose the Belarus stamp I posted in the other thread can come in now:

Hello to you all,
BAVARIA did emit the first stamp on German soil - even if some still cannot believe it.
In the upper left corner you see the stamp as a fake by the famous Sperati - as I said before, I cannot afford the original.
Below and at the right side the 3 German stamps which reproduced it and as a nice addition how the Bulgarians wanted to get some money from the German collectors (I bought it, too !).
Let's not talk about all the countries outside of Europe which showed the stamp at all occasions on their stamps.
