New Issues 1999 (January - April)
Joint stamp issues released during
the year 1999 are collected in the following listing. As it
is not such obvious as it looks to find this information,
this list is probably not yet complete. In certain countries,
joint issues are often announced on the day of the issue and
sometimes it takes months before this information and the
corresponding stamps reach us. Data on missing issues
or supplementary information, particularly for countries,
which are producing joint issues exceptionally, will be highly
appreciated.
