| GDR Scott 774, Michel 1116 (1965) |
Congratulations to CPS Member Emilo from Spain who alerted us to an issue from 1965 which was not present in the Maps on Stamps Checklist. The newly discovered issue, German Democratic Republic (GDR) Scott 774, Michel 1116 (20th anniversary of the Free German Trade Union (FDGB) and the World Organization of Trade Unions). Scott describes the issue as “hemispheres with crowd of workers” and two circles (hemispheres) are clearly depicted on the issue. However, the main map, shown as the outline of the continents, is much more difficult to see, due to the blending with the photo background. A great find indeed! Good eyes Emilo!
