Collection: Bophuthatswana

Discover the distinctive philatelic legacy of Bophuthatswana, a former South African homeland that issued its own stamps from 1977 until its reintegration into South Africa in 1994. Established as a self-governing territory for the Tswana people during the apartheid era, Bophuthatswana's stamps offer a unique glimpse into a complex period of Southern African history. Despite limited international recognition, the republic produced a diverse array of stamps that celebrated its cultural identity, natural heritage, and developmental milestones.
