Hassan II (1962) |
Moroccan kings on stamps for today's theme on Sunday Stamps: Royalty.
Two stamps featuring the former King Hassan II, almost 30 years apart. And, below, a more recent stamp I got: the current king (since 1999) Mohammed VI.
Mohammed VI (2011) |
Contrasting style of stamps between the two monarchs.
ReplyDeleteYou wouldn't say they are father and son.
DeleteI would not have thought that was King Hassan in both those stamps! He changed a lot.
ReplyDeleteAs for Mohammed VI, he looks like a much more modern king. (Appearances can be deceiving, but will now look him up)
Hassan II's was a long reign. A lot of things changed in the country during that period, I guess.
DeleteInteresting. I don't think I have any stamps from Morocco.
ReplyDeleteI have very few... And I lived there for 6 years!
DeleteI do not have any Morocco stamps either and would not have known the name of any of their kings.
ReplyDeleteNow you know them :)
