Last week we were on the Djibouti-Ethiopia railway. This week it's Ethiopia itself.

| Ethiopia - 26 July 1968 |
The stamp shows the Rastafarian Haile Selassie and commemorates the Ethiopian struggle for freedom. Selassie had become the countries emperor and led the country for many years.
My second stamp is also from an African country well know for the pyramids, but this stamp is catalogued on Stamp World as depicting Historical Art & Stone Carving.

I don't have any Ethiopian stamps, interesting to see one. Good to see King Tut too.
Great stamps. The view of the head dress on the Egyptian stamp is unusual - makes for a striking stamp.
