This is a set of six local postage stamps issued in Bolivia in 1946. The designs feature the Bolivian coat of arms, a map of the country, and a depiction of an airplane, highlighting national identity and the importance of aviation for transportation and mail delivery within the nation's challenging geography.

These stamps are considered 'locals' as they were likely issued for specific regional use or by a private carrier, rather than being a general national issue. Such stamps were common in the mid-20th century to address specific postal needs not covered by the central government's services.
