50th anniversary of the launch of the
1st satellite - SPUTNIK

1st satellite - SPUTNIK

Few days ago some fellow collectors and Blog contributors talked about the stamp set that soon will be issued by the Australian Post office... and what a nice set that is... but space collectors everywhere rejoice! This is a great year for us... several countries are issuing SPACE related stamps... now it's time for the United Nations Postal Administration.

This set is to be issued on 25th October 2007, 3 weeks after the 50 year anniversary of SPUTNIK's launch on 4th October 2007.

Eric,
thank you for letting us know that France will also issue Space related stamps... I wonder... how many countries in the world will do the same? Regards
