A highly collectible historical collection of vintage postage stamps from the turbulent early years of Azerbaijan, spanning the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic (ADR) and the Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic (1919–1922).

The classic designs showcase famous national landmarks, including the iconic Maiden Tower in Baku and the ancient Ateshgah Fire Temple, alongside early Soviet allegories of workers and soldiers. Notably, the collection includes the scarce 1921 Azerbaijan SSR Famine Relief (Pomgol) charity stamp issued to aid the Volga region.
