I finally finished processing all of the suggestions from the prior thread and have new pages published. I ended up adopting an overwhelming majority of the suggestions, including moving Greenland to Europe, Cyprus to Europe, and even Falklands to Antarctica. Hopefully I found a reasonable balance in creating a more robust and inclusive collection of a "Stamp for every country".

If you notice any glaring errors or omissions, or if you suspect a stamp may be a fake, please let me know. I have 42 stamps missing that are high CV or commonly faked, or both. If anyone else is pursuing this collection we may be able to help each other out avoiding fakes. I intend to go slow and do lots of research before pursuing those last 42 stamps.

I will show the new page scans here with a few highlights, but if you are interested in the detailed commentary, it's all available at http://www.larsdog.com/stamps/smithsonian.htm

I look forward to your feedback!
