New stamps from Argentina: 100 years of diplomatic relations between Argentina and Poland - Birds
Christmas 2022, issued december 7:
As usual:
- one religious themed (“St. Francis establishes the nativity scene in Greccio” painting by Coppo Marcovaldo in the Bardi chapel of Florence’s Santa Croce basilica);
- one graphical with a stripe forming a Christmas tree.
Instead it’s unusual:
- the triangular shape of the graphical one, I don’t remember other italian stamps like this;
- the late date of issue, normally set for december 1, if one has to send wishes abroad.
And also it’s very strange the B value (domestic 20g) for both, while the normality would have been a B and a Bzone1 (EU 20g).
In that way three tariffs would have been easily covered:
- B for domestic;
- B zone 1 for EU;
- 2x B for extra EU (equals to a B zone 2)
Bilateral diplomatic relationships with Georgia 30 years, issued december 7:
Image is a drawing by Father Cristoforo Castelli, depicting the Bichvinta Cathedral in Abkhazia, Georgia, taken from a manuscript from the XVII century preserved in the Municipal Library “Leonardo
Sciascia” in Palermo.
It’s a B zone 2 valid for extra EU 20g, that in fact is the tariff for sending to Georgia.
Late Christmas stamps, late europa stamps. What is wrong with your postal services? Beautiful designs. I like especially the Italy-Georgia diplomatic relations stamp.
December 12th : India Post issued a stamp on Pa Togan Sangma’s 150th death anniversary. He was a freedom fighter from the Garo tribe in Meghalaya.
