Cuba 1950, 100th Anniversary of the Cuban Flag

Cuba · 1950 · 2c

This stamp commemorates the 100th anniversary of the creation of the Cuban flag. The design prominently features the flag, known as 'La Estrella Solitaria' (The Lone Star), waving against a backdrop of clouds. The denomination '2c' is visible in the upper left corner, with the inscription 'REPUBLICA DE CUBA' at the top.

Issued in 1950, this stamp celebrates a key symbol of Cuban national identity and its struggle for independence, a century after the flag was first raised by Narciso López in 1850.
