A nice Iraq philatelic blog

webmaster — Mon, 07 Jun 2010 16:10:02 +0000

I came across this blog which deals with “all kinds of Philatelic matters ( stamps fields), Coins, Banknotes & Militaria ( Orders or medalas )” for Iraq, I am impressed by the content of the site and I tried to contact the person to invite him to write on this website or I showcase his work here but I did not get a reply.

Anyway here is the site, enjoy it

A new book has been published by the Stuart Rossiter Trust titled IRAQ POSTAL HISTORY 1920s to 1940s. It contains 328 pages and costs the equivalent of £38 plus postage. The main purpose of this book is to make sense of the airmail fees charged on airmail sent from Iraq to all other countries of the world in the period 1933 to 1946.
