I could not have received a more perfect stamp for today. This one is from a Finnish set of 6 (A to F) called Moomin ABC issued in 2022, and promotes writing and reading. Here's a link to more about the stamps. It's a bit hard to find out if this is the first of series, however I think more will be issued in future.
I also thought about España/Espanya for today. I'm always curious how language develops, and I find it interesting that in many languages the E is dropped when referring to the country e.g. Spain (English), Spanje (Dutch) etc.
E is also for EUROPA, an annual common theme for stamps issued by many European countries. Eva sent me this stamp, which is Spain's entry for 2010: Children's Books, that shows a child enjoying reading.
For more philatelic connections to the letter E, head over to See it on a Postcard.
You are right: that stamp is perfect! I like the vintage look and colours. IT would be nice to collect the whole alphabet.
ReplyDeleteThat child on the stamp always makes me smile. It is one of my favourite :)
Perhaps you'll receive one through postcrossing
DeleteThe Moomin stamps look like a great set to have the link was helpful s i still don't know much about them). Love the retro design. I also find languages and how they evolve interesting.
ReplyDeleteIt does have a very 70s vibe, doesn't it!
DeleteI have a few Moomin stamps from Finland but haven't seen those. From your link it sounds as though they may do the full alphabet. I'm on Moomin alert now:)
ReplyDeleteI hope you receive some, and that there are more letters in the future
