Djibouti (2016)

Date of issue: 2016
Name of issue: Les Scorpions (Scorpions)
Number of arachnid related stamps in issue: 5/?

As it is often the case with those African issues, there are tons of thematics in this series. 

A few years after the original print, some deluxe sheets appeared on the market. They are not from the same print and the background brown is slightly different (although hard to see on my scans).

There are imperforates available for this issue.
