I'm not sure if this one counts but...

Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin (1934-1968) was a Soviet pilot and cosmonaut. He was the first human being to journey into outer space, when his Vostok spacecraft completed an orbit of the Earth on April 12, 1961. Here is an image of a stamp depicting the Kremlin's Spasskaya Tower, rockets and radar equipment, with an attached label bearing a quote (translation?) by Soviet leader Nikita S. Khrushchev, printed by offset, and issued by the USSR (Russia) in April, 1961 to publicize this historic feat, Scott No. 2464.

Nice stamp nethryk, but if it's Litho then it is Scott 2441.
According to Scott (2009) # 2442 is engraved.

If you have the engraved type, can you show it for comparison.
