Stamps from 1915 wow!
Some MINT clean front
Burshire Under British Occupation Overprint!

I found this online but I do not know how SCARCE the BUSCHIRE stamp really is? Here is what I read:
The stamps of Bushire are scarce to rare, and quantities issued are known for the September, 1915 set (see the SSSSQIL- British Asia List). They have dual market appeal for collectors of both British Commonwealth and Iran, and as they are overprints.

Provisoire 1919 and more!

In 1915, the British briefly occupied the strategically located Iranian port of Bushire, and issued stamps by overprinting stamps of Iran (then known as Persia). The city had initially been occupied by the British during the Anglo-Persian War (1856-57), returned to Iran in 1913, and then re-occupied by the British who were attempting to counter the efforts by a German spy, Wilhelm Wassmuss (also known as the "Lawrence of Persia"), to foment a guerrilla war against Britain. Throughout the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Persia had been subjected to the "Great Game" - a geopolitical competition between Britain and Russia for supremacy in Central Asia.
