USSR: Stamps and Covers
#6

Indeed sir! One of the features in Stamp Mag years ago was in the Strange but True department. I can't remember the details of the countries, but one country in South America issued a stamp showing a map with that country and the country next door, and between them, a circled area called "the disputed territory"... which came as a bit of a surprise to the other country since it belongs to them. Following some rioting in the streets and threats from country number 2, country number 1 wisely withdrew the stamp.

Now that's political moxy, my friend!
