Bicycles On Stamps...

Nigeria - unadopted artwork - no horn - RE16656

More interesting than the chain guard is that the front wheel needs urgent repair – broken/missing spokes.

Well spotted.

On the 3rd June 2022 the UN Geneva Office issued a sheet of 10 stamps and labels to celebrate World Bicycle Day:

I do appreciate the UN decided to issue it, but they could have hired a better graphic designer for it... One of the reasons I stopped collecting on bicycle theme was sad to see too many issues failed to show the beauty of bicycles and cycling. Subject suits to the stamp format (as we see excellent examples on this thread, mainly old ones), but many are not well executed.



plus, the seat stay is stretched to a wrong angle... I think this is the drawing mistakes rather than the bicycle maintenance!!

By the way, does anyone tell me issued year of this 50c stamp below, from Apeldoorn, a region of Netherlands? I think this is a postman on bike, too (and the seat stay is on the right angle).


p.s. issues on 1 November 1989 - It is still in time for correction, so I am adding here the data. Thank you, bicyclestamps!

Thank you for your swift help, bicyclestamps!

And here is one more postman on bike, robust construction to carry heavy bags (and chain guard, plus no top-tube: this bike is for lady is skirt as well!).

This is the last postman with bike so far from my album... then I realised this is not a bicycle, but a motor-tricycle similar to the one from Austria on page 24 on this thread, which I like its design better than this below...
