Wow, impressive response Blair.My list agrees with yours up to a point
and that point is:
British virgin Islands - I do list/collect because these are of a
defferent design.
Canada. - Single stamp is a bit different, did not list/collect.
Great Britain. - Single stamp is a bit different, did not list/
collect.
Mococco Agencies / Tangier. - Overprint of Great Britain stamp.
Nauru. - Overprint of New Zealand stamps. Not collected
Newfoundland. - I have the three. The eleven are too different to be
considered.
New Guinea. - Overprint of New Zealand stamps. Not collected
Papua. - Overproint of New Zealand stamps. Not collected
South Africa. - George Vi stamps, did not list or collect.
South west Africa. - George Vi stamps, did not list or collect.
Southern Rhodesia. - too different to be considered.
Other than these I have all the rest.

Thanks for the list.

Nauru, New Guinea and Papua all had a common (Australian prinyed)
design, not overprints, and certainly not on New Zealand stamps.

Tony

Tony, you are quite right. I had my head up the proverbial dark place
when I responded. I was thinking of the Cook Islands and Niue stamps
that were overprints of New Zealand.
The Nauru, New Guinea and Paupua mentioned are George VI stamps and
not the normal common design of the 1937 issue.

Thanks for reminding the OLD one to pay attention to what he is doing.

I suppose they do make a little mini-omnibus series of their own.
Makes up for Australia having ignored the Coronation - though I seem
to recall from somewhere that the 5/-, 10/- and 1 Pound Robes stamps
of the 1937 definitive set were intended as a sort of nod to the
Coronation. They'd make an expensive addition to the Omnibus if you
decided to include them, though.
