I'm guessing ... Burkina Faso, Scott #115-119.
What did I win?

As it turns out, you win an invisible set of Burkina Faso #115-119. You will need to pay for shipping and handling, and registration/insurance is extra. No PayPal, cash only.
Sorry, MadDog, I couldn't resist. Get a picture up of your nice stamps and I'm sure somebody here will be able to ID it for you without all the ribbing.

The pair at the top, showing the Watchtower at Mandalay, are Japanese Occupation of Burma (NOT Japanese Occupation of Burkina Faso, which are very rare) 1943 SGJ97

Bottom left is a Government Service issue of Thailand 1963 SGO495. They were used to check how much government mail (which didn't normally have to be stamped) was being used. Germany did the same in Prussia in 1903 and Baden in 1904.

The bottom right stamp is a forgery of Russia Army of the North #4 (Scott catalog #).

The 1st stamp in the 2nd row is an Egyptian revenue -- I believe 1966 series, even though its theme is the 1963 Arab Socialist Union.
