Visit XIX World Jamboree Stamp Issues
CHAD
Issue Date: Either late 1997 or early 1998
[Boy Scout] The six stamps are printed in 3 odd
little minisheets of 6 stamps. There is no marginal Scout inscription in the minisheets.
The layout is bizarre, which does create several different possible setenant combinations. The
layout gives you the possibility of four different setenant combinations on each sheetlet. The
stamps have actual Scouts and a large Chad Scout emblem in the center, in addition to butterflies, mushrooms and flowers.
Available: 6 values perf, imperfs, 3 perf compounds, 3 imperf compounds.
GUINEA
Issue Date: 1998 [Didn't appear until 1999]

the year the Scouting Movement began plus has Scout emblem.
