Also, is there any other country except Great Britain that does not show their stamps' country of origin?

Some modern Saudi Arabian stamps use a green symbol instead of a country name. Also, the Brazilian Bulleyes are just a number. I believe the first Australian Postage dues do not, probably a number of other countries' postage dues as well.

Belgium first issued stamps in 1849, but did not indicate the country's name until 1869. Austria's first stamps came out in 1850, but the country's name didn't appear until 1883.

For the Netherlands, the first issues, nrs. #1-6 do not have the country name showing. Later issues without "Nederland" on the stamp are the 25th anniversary issue of 1923 (#124-131) and the 1924 lifeboat issue (#140)
There are a few more recent US stamps without "US Postage" or "USA" on it.
#1208: only a flag
#1249: "register - vote" and "Postage", but no "US".

Does anyone know how many U.S. issues do not have our country name shown? I know about the Pilgrim Tercentenary series of 1920 (Scott 548, 549, 550) but are there any others?
