Ciskei was a state in Southeast Africa for the Xhosa people, briefly. It is now a province, I believe of South Africa. The wild world of South African geopolitics. Love the stamps. Dang, that's a great place you have over there to shop.
@GregoryReeves-g3t Hello, Thank you for the information about the Ciskei stamps. That shop is great, and I do have to control my buying urges whilst I am in there 😃
I love watching you open these generous packs of stamps! Your stamp dealer packs them with a very nice variety, and the whole discovering what's in them must be fun and part of the incentive to get those. 7 pounds seems like a very fair price to me. Can't wait to see which 6 collections you are going to focus on this coming year. Best wishes for 2025 Jerry!
@Rangersly Thank you, not knowing what you are going to get is part of the fun, and you can't wait to get home to what's inside. They are great value, too. Best wishes for 2025.
I loved this pack of stamps you got. You really get a large variety of stamps in there and so many! I would have loved to be able to buy something similar. Just to discover and explore it is a joy! My eyes lit up when I saw the African stamps - you probably know that I collect sub-Saharan Africa. I really liked the Zambian stamps. Ciskei was a black homeland in South Africa and was in the south-east of the Cape Province, with a short shoreline on the Indian Ocean. It was later re-incorporated into South Africa. Basutoland later became Lesotho. Lesotho is a landlocked country in South Africa. I am looking forward to see what six countries you are going to focus on in 2025. I again wish you an exceptionally special, healthy and prosperous 2025!
@GreatStampAdventure Hello Charnie. Thank you for the information about the African stamps, It is very interesting. I am going to start a Zambian collection, so the Zambia stamps will be useful for that. I wish you all the very best wishes for 2025, take care.
@@jerrystamps You are going to enjoy collecting Zambia. I especially love the fauna and flora stamps of Africa. I know you collect some of the homelands as well if I remember correctly.🙂
i loves these videos. interesting and informative. makes me want to get more stamps but i have a few to organise before i get more. keep these vids going. happy new year and hope things improve in new year.
Happy New Year Jerry. I am watching this 1st of January. I hope the new year will be better than last year. I am happy you still upload videos and I value our connection. Zambia has some lovely stamps. At 1:47 I like the 2 stamps above the circular one you like. They are nicely drawn. I have seen Ciskei stamps before. They were an area in South Africa. I like those ship stamps too at 5:48. I love the approach that you intend to focus on a few collections to show. That is what I intend to do also. I think viewers like being on a journey with you and see how you progress and approach a collection. 10:30 beautful Newfoundland stamp. 12:03 the 30p stamp is nice. And Malta I still have a soft spot for. 13:00 what a stunning British Guiana stamp!
Hello Chris, Happy New Year to you. There are going to be a few slight changes to my channel this year ( 1st Jan today ) and one of those is to focus a lot more on the collections, so I have chosen 6 countries and I will focus on those. I will keep on making videos and trying to improve the channel. Best wishes for 2025.
