When I search for saarc I get everything but not this one. Does anyone know what to do?

Now the picture is gone what I had in it. How do I add it? because dragging in is not possible.

Hi Fazerco. thanks for your reply. However, I don't know where. I can't add the stamp because I don't know a country.

If there is no country on it, it will not be a stamp. It is better to place it with other under close stamps.

Honestly60 @

England does not have a country name either, but it is a postage stamp '.
It is best to do what fazerco called.
You can also scan the stamp and then email the product to a Lastdodo stamp collector
Hope it succeeds.

Henk.

Honestly60,

Can you take a good look and see if there isn't a country like 'Pakistan', 'Maldives', 'Sri Lanka', 'Nepal', 'Afhan post', 'Bhutan' or 'India' listed somewhere in a corner?

SAARC is an association of a number of South Asian countries (politically).
Those countries occasionally dedicate a stamp issue to it. There is a good chance that your stamp is not yet available on LD. An opportunity to add one :) Preferably with a neat scan instead of a photo.

Example of a stamp with the theme SAARC 3407973

BTW (for an admin): Is it a lot of work to add SAARC as a theme? Or is that not possible? (if not of course the question: why not).

Feel free to email the scan to me if you can't find anything from the country anywhere. Sometimes my eyes see something.

Does anyone know under what name I can find the British Trucial States protectorate? Other catalogs refer to the Arab area as Trucial States. It is the predecessor of the United Arab Emirates. I'd love to hear it.

I suspect 'Geographic theme' is a 'closed' list, someone should add 'Trucial States' in it. Then I can apply all of that to those stamps.

Thank you for your response Raoul. There are indeed a number of stamps with the VAR. Agree with your proposal.

The "Trucial States" were Abu Dhabi, Ajman, Manama, Dubai, Fujeira, Ras Al Khaima, Sharjah and Umm al Qiwain (says my Stanley Gibbons). The stamps were exclusively issued in Dubai. The other states simply did not have a post office yet, despite the fact that there were plenty of pictures of those staring published. Later the name "United Arab Emirates" was used.

Dick,
can you expand the 'Geographic theme' list with 'Trucial States'? The relevant (post) stamps can then get that property (I want to take care of that). A user can subsequently filter on that data on the left side of the screen. Would be useful.

Someone has already added it for you to your example.

Yes, it is in the name of the 'area', but not yet in the 'Geographic theme' list (under the 'Theme' line). If it can be added there (a simple user on LD can't add anything in that list), you can edit that field for each stamp. After that everyone can easily filter on it:



Then in the gallery links you can restrict to those items:


Like there now 'Abu-Dhabi' is available.

Such dropdowns / pop-ups only contain the original names, not the aliases. Geographic themes have not yet added an alias for the United Arab Emirates, including UAE.
Aliases can be found via the search engine.
