This stamp commemorates philately and postal services. The design features a magnifying glass, a common tool for stamp collectors, examining another stamp, creating a 'stamp-on-stamp' motif. The yellowish-green color and detailed rendering highlight the precision associated with both optical instruments and stamp production.
Issued in 1980, this stamp reflects a period of global interest in promoting stamp collecting as a hobby. The 'stamp-on-stamp' theme was popular worldwide as a way for postal administrations to celebrate their own history and the art of philately.
