MICHEL - Southern Africa 2024-2025 - Stamp catalogue

Language: German. Contains Ascension, Botswana, Lesotho (with Basutoland), Malawi (with Nyassaland), Namibia (with Southwest Africa), Zambia (with Northern Rhodesia), St. Helena, Zimbabwe (with Southern Rhodesia, Rhodesia), South Africa with Colonies and Homelands, Swaziland and Tristan da Cunha. he 2024-2025 MICHEL Overseas South Africa catalogue features the former British states in South Africa, including the islands of the British overseas territory of St. Helena, Ascension, and Tristan da Cunha, covering the entire period from the first stamps issued in the South African colonies in 1853 to the most recent issues of contemporary states that are popular with stamp collectors. All the countries listed in this catalogue follow a very restrained issuing policy, which is rather untypical for these times. For example, the South African Postal Administration has issued only three new stamps since 2021 due to serious financial challenges, and Zambia has been applying new overprints on existing stamps for several years. The issues presented in this edition are of interest not only to country collectors but also to thematic collectors. 780 pages
