These postage stamps help publicise cultural, social, and historical events, and generally promote a country’s image. Some are issued jointly with other countries.
They are shown in order of issue date, with the most recent issue first.
They have different formats and values, may be printed in different systems (offset, gravure, or chalcography) and can be used in different ways.
Formats:
Stamp.- A single stamp per issue is the most common format.
Mini sheet.- A printed page with one or more stamps, with their corresponding postage value, different measurements and printing systems. It is a good way to group stamps on the same subject, and is the option for showing living people around the stamps.
