<div id="ygrps-yiv-473621851">Also interesting, a list of entities that ever issued stamps at any<br/>
time since stamps were issued (ever hear of Nossi Be ??) - Go to <br/>
&quot;Zillionsofstamps.com&quot; and see the pulldown list.  You can find under<br/>
whose sovereignty each existed, from what date to what date, often<br/>
what type of government each had (from what date to what date) and<br/>
what currency each used throughout their stamp issuing histories in<br/>
Michel German stamp catalogs (and when).  (The first regular stamps<br/>
came out in 1840).  <br/>
