🇱🇹 Stamperija (Private company located in Lithuania selling and producing philatelic products stated to be under contract with certain African postal authorities or governments).
2024 - “The first Mickey Mouse cartoon Steamboat Willie enters public domain” (in other words, Stamperija seizes the first moment possible to produce and sell items depicting Disney characters without having to pay a licence fee). While not usually publicising the range of exploitative products emanating from the notorious Stamperija, these items are noted here to illustrate just how those who run Stamperija have an eye to the main chance and will exploit every single opportunity that arises to screw money out of hapless stamp collectors. As usual, caveat emptor. Rating:- 0.
Apart from the names of the two Commonwealth countries illustrated below, products on the same subject have been put on the market with the names of Djibouti, Liberia, Central African Republic, Guinea Bissau and Guinea printed on them. All issued in perforated and imperforate versions.
