Bolivia · 2017 · 15 Bs

This stamp commemorates the 150th anniversary of Bolivia's first postage stamp.

The modern stamp reproduces this classic design alongside the anniversary inscription.

Issued in 2017, this stamp honors Bolivia's entry into the world of philately in 1867, a period of national consolidation and modernization for the country.
