Albanian Postage Stamps, 1962

Albania · 1962 · Various

This set of three stamps from Albania celebrates the hobby of philately. Each stamp features a design-within-a-design, showcasing earlier Albanian stamps from 1913 and 1914. The designs include the 1913 issue with the double-headed eagle and the 1914 Prince William of Wied issue, connecting Albania's modern postal history with its origins.

Issued in 1962 under the People's Socialist Republic of Albania, this set reflects a period of relative stability and an effort to promote national identity and culture, including its philatelic heritage.
