Lesotho Stamp and Postal History

[illbestamped]

Hello everyone. It has been a long time since I have posted. If you don't know me, I am the owner of the I'll Be Stamped! philatelic YouTube channel. Recently, I have started research for a stamp video about the small country of Lesotho, in the middle of the country of South Africa (it is one of three countries that do this). It used to be call Basutoland and was once a British colony. If any of you has some interesting facts or knows about the postal history of the country, please let me know! Feel free to show me some more pictures of their stamps, too.

illbestamped, Here are a few from my meager collection from Lesotho. Most of these I have found in box lots

over the years. Will post a few more later.

I really like that Santa Fe one!

Here is a few more pretty pics from Lesotho.

As you can see, I just collect most of these in stock pages and may get around to mounting

on proper pages some day.
