    I am thrilled to let you know Mairiuna that indeed , I do have stamps commemorating The Lost World . They are from Liberia and were issued in 1999.  It came in the format of a  sheet of 6 stamps and a souvenir sheet.

    Dinosaurs on stamps is a very popular collection amongst topical stamp collectors.

    The first dinosaur postage stamp was issued by the People’s Republic of China in 1958 and per my last notes on the subject , they were 300 stamps produced by 57 countries through 1992.

    I should get updated figures, or else I will make figure of a dinosaur myself ! Many were produced with typo errors or mistakes in the geologic eras but it spices up the research and the discussion.

    Would be interesting to know how many stamps worldwide have pictures of dinosaurs on them as of 2009…
