right
& that is one of the presumably common situations i anticipated
but a stamp map of say cabinda alone
without showing the rest of angola
if such a purely exclave oriented stamp even exists in that case
would more nearly complement your nakhichevan & karki find
which is unusual because it doesnt show the rest of azerbaijan
but yikes i just realized
there are probably lots of stamp maps of alaska alone too
& who knows what other not so cute ones
like maybe kaliningrad alone i would also guess
etc etc
so maybe this collection isnt going to be quite so unusual or so
cute as i had originally imagined anyway
