One of the most popular stamp issuing areas is the Falkland Islands. This popularity must be the result of the charm and the mystery of the place as with an average population over the last 150 years of under two thousand residents, the stamps are not valuable as a result of domestic demand. The stamps are well engraved and depart in attractive ways from the standard Crown Colonies philatelic agent issues that make much British Colony philately seem like clone collecting. Perhaps the prettiest set in our hobby is the 1933 Centenary set with the 5 shilling value being one of my favorite stamps. As luck would have it, we are offering Falkland Islands complete (broken into collector suitable lots of course) in our next public auction so keep looking at our website for the posting.
