There are some nice Olympic stamps. That's the first time I heard of RAS al KHAIMA though.
ReplyDeleteI bought a packet of Olympic stamps in the dimestore once--I think it was about 1980. I looked at them not too long ago and was surprised that they were mostly from countries that I wouldn't expect to see. They must have been made just for collectors.

ReplyDeleteIt is one of the United Arab Emirates. And a prosperous one at that!!
Your theory seems sensible,
as they were never big in the medal department...
