Here is a nice issue from Occussi-Ambeno, way back in 2007. The campaign to eradicate fleas from Occussi-Ambeno to make the country a lot less itchy.
Occussi-Ambeno 2007 Anti-flea campaign. The design includes the life cycle of the flea, and various close-up views of the evil vampire insect. Hopefully soon to be genocided on this planet!

A philatelist recently inquired if by any chance have I made or do I plan to make a catalogue of all the private post stamps, fantasy stamps, cinderellas etc that I have printed/produced/issued over the years?
She thinks such a catalogue (online or printed) would be very interesting to cinderella collectors, and it would be a shame for cinderella philately if my creations are not listed and documented for posterity. I agree, such a catalogue would be of interest, and I have already done catalogues of some of the lands I print stamps for (including Occussi-Ambeno, Kemp Land, Chyan, Free Vinland, Raoul Island, Waikoa Island.) But most of my rather busy time is taken up with continuing to keep my fantasy lands active and sending off more mail to friends and colleagues, rather than documenting earlier issues. However, I would be happy to collaborate with some other person who wants to do such a catalogue. And Ralph Phillips in Israel has done a number of CD catalogues which include many of my countries. Contact him for details of his excellent works and to buy his CD catalogues. And any stamps you need to complete your collection, contact me. Though not all issues are still available, I am always happy to exchange (both "normal" stamps or cinderellas) for those you would like. The Norwegian philatelist Geir Sor-Reime wrote a five-part article on my stamps, "Long Live the Sultan", * in UK magazine The Cinderella Philatelist in 2016, which mentioned many of the stamps I have done. But his articles also omitted many as well. Despite my correcting and updating much of what he wrote, the editors of The Cinderella Philatelist only printed what Geir gave them, thereby relegating their article to be an incomplete version. I am happy to send the pdf of the enhanced version to anyone on request. So any volunteers to update my biography, get in touch! regards, Bruce. * The title for the article comes from an Occussian law that says that ALL mail MUST have the words "Long live the Sultan!" written, printed, or stamped on the front. Most Occussians use a rubber stamp for this. And some Occussians also use these rubber stamps on mail they send to other sultanates, such as Brunei and Oman. Waikoa Island 1965 50c with 1970 Lefaga, Samoa postmark! WI catalogue # 6. Free Vinland 2008 Helicopters help humanity set. FVR catalogue # 61 - 63. |

Here is my latest Space issue. Plenty of extras available for anybody who would like to add some to your collection: I am always amenable to a trade!
The first Moon Walk took place in 1969, which was just one year after Occussi-Ambeno gained its independence and started issuing its own stamps. This set was issued on 20th July 2019. A special overprint was issued to celebrate the actual moon landing, and that was Occussi-Ambeno's first-ever commemorative set (if you exclude the "independence" overprints.)

I have had a nice package of stamps from Bruce, covers and sheets. Lovely stuff. Even better was that I wasn't expecting them so it was a nice surprise. You may have seen some of these but so what? TV shows often repeat too.

Sonne Empire 1990, first flight of zeppelin airship from Sonne to Occussi-Ambeno. Sonne was discussed briefly on another thread. Back pre-earthquake, in happier times the two countries were quite close. The overprint is metallic purple, which reflects the light wonderfully when you move it, almost giving a "rainbow" effect.
