The Complete Zimbabwe Collection - 2015 to 2019

Just added the 2015 to 2019 stamp issues for Zimbabwe. As I mentioned earlier, new stamp issues from Zimbabwe do not happen often. In 2016, there were three new issues. In 2017, there were two. 2018 saw three new issues and in 2019, only one new set of stamps came out.

Over this five year period, Zimbabwe issued its 8th set of definitive stamps with the theme of Victoria Falls tourism and there were three issues of the ongoing National Heroes series.

The 2019 Baby Animals stamp issue also saw the first use since 2010 of "Letter" postage rate denominations with rates as follows: Z (40c) for postage within Zimbabwe, A ($1.00) for postage to Africa, E ($1.60) for postage to Europe and R ($2.00) for postage to the Rest of the World. 

My favourites over this period are the Drystone Ruins and the Ladybirds of Zimbabwe.
