Czechoslovakian stamps didn't just show paintings,
portraits of famous personalities or flowers.
Sometimes one of their designers came up with an
artistic image.
Like this one from 1968 for the 50th Anniversary
of Czechoslovakia.

Designer : Karel Svolinsky

Engraver: Ladislav Jirka

Printing process : 3 colour engraved from flat plates
