Burma 1988 'Struggle for Freedom' Essay Stamps by Min Sun Min
Burma · 1988 ·
This is a set of privately designed 'cinderella' stamps or essays created by artist Min Sun Min. They were not officially issued for postage but were created to commemorate the struggle for freedom and democracy in Burma, telling a story the artist felt was missing from the official historical narrative.
These essays were created around the time of the 8888 Uprising, a series of nationwide protests and civil unrest in Burma (Myanmar) demanding democracy. These items are a form of political and artistic expression rather than official government postage.
