Philippines: 75th Anniversary of Rotary International Se-tenant Strip
Philippines · 1980 · 30 centavos (each stamp in a se-tenant strip of 5)
This commemorative se-tenant strip of five stamps celebrates the 75th Anniversary of Rotary International. The continuous design across the strip vividly illustrates a panoramic history of the Philippines, depicting scenes from pre-colonial times, Spanish and American colonial periods, and the nation's journey to independence. Each stamp prominently features the Rotary International emblem and the anniversary dates '1905-1980'.
Issued in 1980, these stamps mark a significant milestone for Rotary International, a global service organization founded in 1905. The choice to illustrate Philippine history on these stamps connects the international organization's anniversary with the nation's own historical narrative, reflecting Rotary's long-standing presence and impact within the Philippines.
