1970 Turkey European Conservation Year Stamp Set

Turkey · 1970 · 50+10, 60+10, 130+10 Kuruş

This set of three stamps commemorates the 1970 European Conservation Year. The designs feature a stylized tree symbol surrounded by stars, set against different natural landscapes: mountains, a barren tree silhouette at sunset, and a bird of prey in flight.

The European Conservation Year in 1970 was a major initiative by the Council of Europe to raise awareness about environmental protection and promote conservation efforts across the continent, leading to various national campaigns and stamp issues.
