Building Our Future Together


The United Nations is a global intergovernmental organization established by the signing of the Charter of the United Nations on 26 June 1945 with the articulated mission of maintaining international peace and security, to develop friendly relations among states, to promote international cooperation, and to serve as a centre for harmonizing the actions of states in achieving those goals.

24 October is United Nations Day: it marks the anniversary of the entry into force in 1945 of the UN Charter. 
To mark the 80th anniversary, some postal administrations issued special stamps, like the one Bryon sent. 

I am not especially fond of the Spanish design, tough.

  1. I'd love to see a longer post about what you like (and dislike) and what you miss in Spanish stamps! I have seen some comments here and there, like the lack of women representation.

    I dislike the fact that the stamps I like the most have very high nominal values (like the gastronomy series) so I don't get to use them.

  2. I agree. This time the UN stamp wins the design battle :)
