The old US issues are not expensive to buy too.
I received this week a card from the USA and there were two space stamps on it. One of them you can see at @si356z post, but I will put it once more as a picture here. The moon is really cool, because it’s in silver and when you move it, it “shines”.
GREECE: Miniature sheet with a €2.50 stamp commemorating the founding of the (now defunct) Hellenic Space Agency (2018).
USSR: The first Sputnik-1 launch commemorative stamp of the Soviet Union, issued using a text overprint on a Konstantin Tsiolkovsky stamp, Scott #2021, October 4, 1957.

I don’t think, that the czechoslovakian post was referring to the movie from the same year, that was not quiet at all
Stamps and FDC
I almost forgot the Voschod stamp. The flight of the Voschod 1 was very risky business, but the brave trio was very lucky and survived
Unfortunately I don’t have the FDC. If anybody has, don’t hesitate to share with us
USA: postage stamp of 3¢ commemorating the Palomar Mountain Observatory (1948).

Another space stamp set issued by czechoslovakian post. We were really keen on astronautics in the past
And the FDC’s
Artists : Lukavský, Herčík, Housa, Mráček
NB!Very nice!🫡
Another Czechoslovakian issue of 1965 was dedicated to flights with two astronauts onboard. The Voschod 2 and the Gemini 3
The next issue is dedicated to interplanetary exploration. I really like the amount of detail put into the painting considering how small these stamps are.
1966
FDC’s
