1972 "Diplom" (award certificate) "souvenir page" for the Most Beautiful Swedish Stamp of 1971. Awarded in May 1972 as a prize for being among those who selected the particular stamp design: The center stamp (crown on blue background) of the 1971 Crown Regalia stamp issue [Scott #899-903, printed by photogravure, but designed by SLANIA]. A strip of five uncanceled stamps is affixed to the certificate. Yellowish laid paper, 210 x 296 mm. My recollection is that only 100 people received this certificate; this is only the second example I have recording seeing or having. [Included are a ca.1950s-1960s color Swedish map and a 1968 folder picturing and describing in Swedish the Stockholm Castle; these were in the package with the "Diplom", but I cannot be sure that they were received as part of the prize.] |
