On December 22, 1967 the Ryukyu Islands issued this stamp (Sc #166) to publicize the opening of television stations in the U.S. administered island chain.

The islands on the stamp are shown in a creative fashion. If a map of these islands (and Okinawa Main Island) were shown to scale, the viewer would see small, indiscernible shapes. The island with "KSGA" inscription is Ishigaki Island in the Yaeyama Region, and the island with the "KSDY" inscription is Miyako Island in the Miyako Region. Miyako Region is northeast of Yaeyama Region, and about 300 km southwest of Okinawa Main Island.

Here is the low value 7 drachma value (Sc #1285) from Greece's December 28, 1978 map set of three. The designs of the three stamps are identical, the only difference being the color of the Mediterranean Sea. On the 7 d value it is baby blue, on the 11 d stamp it is light turquoise, and on the 13 d it is light violet blue.

Apologies in advance if any of these have already been posted. Very long thread.

On November 22, 1974 Chile issued a set of four, 200 escudo stamps arranged in a se-tenant block to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the Juan Fernandez Archipelago, a Chilean territory located in the Pacific Ocean 670 km (416 miles) west of the mainland. One of the stamps of this set (Sc #455a) depicts Robinson Crusoe Island, showing its global coordinates.

From wikipedia, "From 1704 to 1709, the island was the home of marooned sailor Alexander Selkirk, who at least partially inspired novelist Daniel Defoe's fictional Robinson Crusoe in his 1719 novel, although the novel is explicitly set in the Caribbean."

Photo shows the statue of Robinson Crusoe in the town of San Juan Batista, Robinson Crusoe Island.
