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 am looking for my themes:

1949 UPU 75th anniversary
1935 Silver Jubilee Gerge V
1953 Coronation of Elizabeth II
British royal visits - (only until the early 60s)

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

Comoro Islands - Issue of 1950

The Comoro Archipelago consist of the islands of Mayotte, Anjouan, Grand Comoro and Moheli, which issued their own stamps as French protectorates or colonies from 1887-1914. The archipelago was attached to Madagascar from 1914 to 1946, when it became a separate French territory. In 1975 Anjouan, Grand Comoro ad Moheli united to declare indipendence as the State of Comoro. Mayotte remained French.
