The stunning scenery of islands has long enchanted collectors worldwide. This site is dedicated to stamps from islands worldwide, and is updated on a monthly basis, often with recent issues from rarely seen island territories.
10c, 85c, 110c: This pane of colorful birds shows species not native to the Caribbean, such as the White Pelican, Streamertail and Gouldian Finch. Of interest is the selvage imagery of birds pictured on the stamp sheetlet.
80 sen: this 2018 issue features scenery and wildlife of Malaysia's two states on the island of Borneo. The backdrop shows a view of Mt. Kinabalu, the highest peak on Borneo.
35p: this sheetlet of six se-tenant stamps shows birdlife and mammals of the S. Georgia isles, including a reindeer, fur seals, King penguins, terns and the Gray-headed Albatross.
76c: this 1999 issue shows fishing pirogues lined up on a quiet beach; this is a dual currency issue, right before France and its territories adopted the euro
120fr and 50fr: these two local artist issues show aspects of island life richly rendered: the first shows a traditional village burial scene and below, a modern scene of women departing a church service.
