1. City of Valletta (1980)

The capital of Malta is inextricably linked to the history of the military and charitable Order of St John of Jerusalem. It was ruled successively by the Phoenicians, Greeks, Carthaginians, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs and the Order of the Knights of St John. Valletta’s 320 monuments, all within an area of 55 ha, make it one of the most concentrated historic areas in the world. (taken from: http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/131)

identify BNA and Swiss stamps
I have a specialized collection of 19th-century BNA and Swiss stamps and related materials. I'm not qualified to "expertize," but I'm happy to help identify varieties. I'm also interested in getting the same sort of help.

used Hong Kong 21st century stamps
I always use stamps to send letters and packages and do get quite annoyed when I don't get stamps on letters. But I digress - I would love to complete my used collection of HK stamps - lacking a lot of stamps from 2000 to today (2008)
