Iceland 1967 Europa CEPT Issue

Iceland · 1967 · 4 kr / 7 kr

This two-stamp set was issued as part of the 1967 Europa CEPT series, a joint initiative among European postal administrations. The design, common to all participating countries, features an abstract pattern of interlocking cogwheels or gears, symbolizing industrial cooperation and technological progress within Europe.

The Europa CEPT issues of the 1960s promoted a sense of shared European identity and cooperation during the Cold War era, with member nations issuing stamps with a common design theme each year.
