I collect:
Italian stamps (since 1960 only if new);
Worldwide stamps issued before 1960, with particular interest in the former colonies;
... and all the ones I like

I'd like to hear your opinion. Thank you all.

Upper Volta - selection stamps of 1928

Northwestern Africa north of Ghana. In 1919 the French territory of Upper Volta was detached from the southern  section of Upper Senegal and Niger  and made a separate colony. In 1933 the colony was divided among its neighbors: French Sudan, Ivory Coast, and Niger Territory. The Republic of Upper Volta was proclaimed in 1958; the name was changed to Burkina Faso on 1984.
