ALAND ISLANDS 1984
Aland is an autonomous province of Finland.
It is a group of islands in the Baltic at the mouth of the Gulf of Bothnia.
Separate issues began in 1984 although stamps of
Finland continued to be valid.
From 1 Jan 1993, Aland began its own postal administration
and Finnish stamps ceased to have validity there.
These are the first issues.
