so far and dated back 2023. At the occasion of the 50<sup>th</sup> anniversary of their diplomatic relationship, <strong>Türkiye (Turkey) </strong>and <strong>Qatar </strong>issued the same stamp representing the figure “50” and a logo (flower and sand rose). The Turkish stamp was released on <strong>September 27, 2023</strong>, while the Qatari stamp became available on <strong>November 5, 2023</strong>. Both stamps were released in form of same shape miniature sheets containing five stamps [(2×2)+1]. This new issue will be described in the catalogue under the entry code [<strong>C20230927</strong>]. Congratulations and thanks a lot, George.</p> <figure data-carousel-extra='{"blog_id":200033749,"permalink":"https:\/\/philarz.com\/2025\/02\/15\/new-discovery-from-2023\/"}' class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-attachment-id="4663" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2025/02/15/new-discovery-from-2023/20230927qatar/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20230927qatar.jpg" data-orig-size="453,316" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="20230927qatar" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20230927qatar.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20230927qatar.jpg?w=453" width="453" height="316" data-id="4663" src="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20230927qatar.jpg?w=453" alt="" class="wp-image-4663" /></figure> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-attachment-id="4664" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2025/02/15/new-discovery-from-2023/20230927turkey/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20230927turkey.jpg" data-orig-size="576,401" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="20230927Turkey" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20230927turkey.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20230927turkey.jpg?w=576" width="576" height="401" data-id="4664" src="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20230927turkey.jpg?w=576" alt="" class="wp-image-4664" /></figure> </figure> <p></p> <p>It is quite difficult to find information from Qatar. On January 31, 2025, Argentina released also a stamp celebrating the 50 years of relationship with Qatar. This Argentina stamp could be one half of a joint issue, but information from Qatar is missing. Any help here is welcome. In the meantime, you will find below the picture of the Argentinian stamp. It may be possible that the Qatari stamp will be released only in a couple of months from now.</p> <figure data-carousel-extra='{"blog_id":200033749,"permalink":"https:\/\/philarz.com\/2025\/02\/15\/new-discovery-from-2023\/"}' class="wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex"> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-attachment-id="4667" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2025/02/15/new-discovery-from-2023/20250131argentina/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20250131argentina.jpg" data-orig-size="335,140" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="20250131Argentina" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20250131argentina.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20250131argentina.jpg?w=335" width="335" height="140" data-id="4667" src="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/20250131argentina.jpg?w=335" alt="" class="wp-image-4667" /></figure> </figure> <p></p> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <div class="categories-and-tags"><span class="cat-links"><a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/argentina/" rel="category tag">Argentina</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/topics/flower/" rel="category tag">Flower</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/qatar/" rel="category tag">Qatar</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/turkey/" rel="category tag">Turkey</a></span></div><span class="comments-link"><a href="https://philarz.com/2025/02/15/new-discovery-from-2023/#respond">Leave a comment</a></span> </footer> </article> <article id="post-3742" class="post-3742 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-architecture category-asean category-brunei category-cambodia category-korea-south category-laos category-philippines category-post category-turkiye category-tiger category-turkey category-uruguay"> <header class="entry-header"> <h1 class="entry-title"><a href="https://philarz.com/2024/09/12/summer-2024-complement/" rel="bookmark">Summer 2024 complement</a></h1> <div class="entry-meta"> <span class="byline"> by <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://philarz.com/author/zzymm/">Richard Zimmermann</a></span></span><span class="posted-on"><a href="https://philarz.com/2024/09/12/summer-2024-complement/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published updated" datetime="2024-09-12T09:09:11+02:00">12 September 2024</time></a></span> </div> </header> <div class="entry-content"> <p>During the month of August 2024 a few joint issues were supposed to take place and did not as expected.

This item was part of a limited edition folder that was printed only at 4,000 samples. Of course, this item needs to be described as complementary material in the catalogue, but this is not the kind of items we like, as, even if those stamps are to be considered a true postage material, due to the limited availability and probably their absence of use on mail, they are closer to expensive cinderellas than to true stamps.</p> <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img data-attachment-id="3774" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2024/09/12/summer-2024-complement/20240806turkeyss1/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg" data-orig-size="1805,1027" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="20240806turkeyss1" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg?w=605" loading="lazy" width="1024" height="582" src="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg?w=1024" alt="" class="wp-image-3774" srcset="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg?w=1024 1024w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg?w=150 150w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg?w=300 300w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg?w=768 768w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240806turkeyss1.jpg 1805w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure></div> <p></p> <p>Enzo Cafaro (Italy) contacted the Turkish postal administration, which answered that this issue is not considered by them as joint, despite same date and common logo. In fact, some postal administrations do consider an issue to be really joint only if they organize a common booth in both countries on the first day of issue and/or if they produce official mixed FDC. If that would be the criteria for defining joint issues, then half of the catalogue should be discarded. But in this case we still have a real proof of collaboration during the preparation phase, which eventually led to the conclusion that each country would work by its own, following just to an agreement about the content. Some exchange of material did take place (e.g., the logo). This issue will be considered and maintained in the catalogue as a parallel joint issue. Note that over the past 30 years, Türkiye (Turkey) and Japan issued at several occasions stamps with the common topic of relationship (1988, 1990, 2010, 2019, 2021 and now 2024), some of them being considered as joint and described in the catalogue. Up to you to decide if you want to add those to your collection. In the catalogue, the stamps will be considered as a true parallel issue, but the additional Turkish miniature sheet will be described in italics and gray color.</p> <p><em>On a completely different aspect, note also that the Turkish government has recommended and requested that the English spelling of the country name should now be ‘<strong>Türkiye</strong>‘ instead of ‘Turkey’, while the adjective Turkish can continue to be used. Starting 2024, we will use in the catalogue the new spelling ‘Türkiye’ but keep the older spelling between brackets i.e. ‘Türkiye (Turkey)’, in order to avoid the loss of some information when using e.g. the ‘Search’ tool.</em></p> <p></p> <p>Very recently, we heard about an Uruguay – Korea (South) joint issue and got, through Enzo Cafaro (Italy), information from the Uruguayan side. The stamps were issued on September 10, 2024, but no information is available so far from South Korea. Help is also needed here.</p> <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img data-attachment-id="3777" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2024/09/12/summer-2024-complement/20240910uruguayst/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240910uruguayst.jpg" data-orig-size="879,310" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="20240910Uruguayst" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240910uruguayst.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240910uruguayst.jpg?w=605" loading="lazy" width="879" height="310" src="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240910uruguayst.jpg?w=879" alt="" class="wp-image-3777" srcset="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240910uruguayst.jpg 879w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240910uruguayst.jpg?w=150 150w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240910uruguayst.jpg?w=300 300w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/20240910uruguayst.jpg?w=768 768w" sizes="(max-width: 879px) 100vw, 879px" /></figure></div> <p></p> </div> <footer class="entry-footer"> <div class="categories-and-tags"><span class="cat-links"><a href="https://philarz.com/category/topics/architecture/" rel="category tag">Architecture</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/topics/asean/" rel="category tag">ASEAN</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/brunei/" rel="category tag">Brunei</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/cambodia/" rel="category tag">Cambodia</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/korea-south/" rel="category tag">Korea (South)</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/laos/" rel="category tag">Laos</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/philippines/" rel="category tag">Philippines</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/topics/post/" rel="category tag">Post</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/turkiye/" rel="category tag">Türkiye</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/topics/tiger/" rel="category tag">Tiger</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/turkey/" rel="category tag">Turkey</a> <a href="https://philarz.com/category/countries/uruguay/" rel="category tag">Uruguay</a></span></div><span class="comments-link"><a href="https://philarz.com/2024/09/12/summer-2024-complement/#respond">Leave a comment</a></span> </footer> </article> <article id="post-3667" class="post-3667 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-algeria category-architecture category-asean category-brunei category-cambodia category-egypt category-grenada category-indonesia category-iraq category-japan category-jordan category-korea-south category-laos category-libya category-malaysia category-morocco category-myanmar category-oman category-palestine category-peace category-philippines category-post category-qatar category-singapore category-thailand category-turkey category-vietnam"> <header class="entry-header"> <h1 class="entry-title"><a href="https://philarz.com/2024/08/11/mid-summer-2024-update/" rel="bookmark">Mid Summer 2024 update</a></h1> <div class="entry-meta"> <span class="byline"> by <span class="author vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="https://philarz.com/author/zzymm/">Richard Zimmermann</a></span></span><span class="posted-on"><a href="https://philarz.com/2024/08/11/mid-summer-2024-update/" rel="bookmark"><time class="entry-date published updated" datetime="2024-08-11T14:49:33+02:00">11 August 2024</time></a></span> </div> </header> <div class="entry-content"> <p>On <strong>August 8, 2024</strong>, the ten ASEAN countries decided again to issue jointly stamps (previous ASEAN joint issue goes back to 2019).

Achour (Algeria) provided the following information: On the sidelines of the 45<sup>th</sup> session of the Permanent Arab Postal Commission held on July 18, 2024 at the headquarters of the General Secretariat of the Arab League in Cairo (Egypt), the Commission responsible for choosing the design of the “Unified Arab Stamp” dedicated to Gaza delivered its verdict. The model presented by Jordan will illustrate this stamp to be released this year. No specific issue date was lilinked to the issue so far. The countries that participated in this competition included <strong>Algeria, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Palestine</strong> and <strong>Qatar</strong>.</p> <p>The title of this issue will be “Solidarity with Gaza”. Its issue will coincide with the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People established by the United Nations. It is generally held on November 29 of each year to mark the anniversary of Resolution 181, which is the Partition Plan for Palestine.<br>The 2024 philatelic program published at the beginning of the year by the Algerian postal administration has already selected this date of <strong>November 29, 2024</strong> for the release of this joint issue. The list of countries that will participate to this issue is not known, but probably at least all countries having participated to the design competition will release a stamp. This issue will definitely become a twin omnibus series.

<strong>July 8, 2024</strong>. The following countries have so far released their stamps: <strong>Bosnia Herzegovina</strong> (July 10, 2024) – <strong>Croatia – Cyprus</strong> (July 10) – <strong>Egypt</strong> () – <strong>France – Greece </strong>– <strong>Malta – Montenegro – Morocco – Portugal </strong>(July 10) – <strong>Slovenia – Spain</strong> (July 10) – <strong>Tunisia</strong> (July 9) and <strong>Turkey</strong> (July 7). We are expecting other issues from Albania and Jordan. Jordan stamps have not been seen so far, while Albania stamps are always delayed by one year. Topic is Mediterranean sports and illustrations are different. Thanks to Ali Ahmed Med Achour (Algeria), Don Birschel (USA), Jeff Courtright (USA) for having provided details.</p> <div

on <strong>August 8, 2024</strong>, jointly with <strong>Turkey</strong>, has been released. As this issue celebrating the 100<sup>th</sup> anniversary of the diplomatic relations between both countries appears also in the Turkish philatelic program, it is expected that Turkey will maintain stamps at this occasion in their next issues even if design is not yet available. Actually, knowing the way Japan did handle joint issues in the past, it is not expected that Turkey will produce a similar souvenir sheet, but the country could simply pick one or two designs from this sheet to produce their stamps.</p> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img data-attachment-id="3553" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2024/07/02/random-news-july-2024/20240806japan/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240806japan.jpg" data-orig-size="794,540" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"0","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"0"}" data-image-title="20240806japan" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240806japan.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240806japan.jpg?w=605" loading="lazy" width="794" height="540" src="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240806japan.jpg?w=794" alt="" class="wp-image-3553" srcset="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240806japan.jpg 794w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240806japan.jpg?w=150 150w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240806japan.jpg?w=300 300w, https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/07/20240806japan.jpg?w=768 768w" sizes="(max-width: 794px) 100vw, 794px" /></figure> <p></p> <p>Next issue to come, the 2024 <strong>Euromed</strong> issue, topic Mediterranean sports, to be officially released on <strong>July 10, 2024</strong>. This issue is now confirmed for <strong>Bosnia Herzegovina (Serbia) – France – Portugal – Tunisia </strong>and <strong>Turkey</strong>, but probably another dozen of countries will join by that time.</p> <p></p> <p>Our friend Mario Moni (Italiy) inquired about some missing Italian Territorial Issues listed in catalogue Volume 2. Taking as an example the issue <strong>D19301204</strong> (Volume 2, page 136), he pointed the absence of <strong>Aegean Islands</strong>, while this same postal administration is included in other described issues. Indeed, and after a carefull cheking, the Aegean Islands were missing in this series, but also in other series such as <strong>D19310507</strong>. The catalogue was updated of course. The same question was addressed regarding the 1925 Holy Year series (Italy issued stamps on December 24, 1924), but in this case the situation is a little bit more complicated.</p> <p>In fact, the catalogue should be reshuffled by keeping only the true joint issues, but this is a huge work. It will not be easy to do and some collectors will not be happy with the decision of removing all territorial issues. For the time being, these issues will continue to be part of the catalogue, but still following the rules that had been defined in Volume I:</p> <ul class="wp-block-list"> <li>Normally, overprinted issues, i.e., colonial or territorial overprinted issues, are not joint issues, and not reported in the catalogue, <em><strong>except if the color of the territorial issue differs from the main country stamps</strong></em></li> <li>This is the case for the two Aegean series listed above (<strong>D19301204</strong> and <strong>D19310507</strong>), but the 1924/1925 Holy Year stamps are simply overprinted Italian stamps with the same stamp colors. This is the reason why they are not reported in the catalogue</li> <li>However, a note has been added in the catalogue and this series was filed as <strong>N19250601</strong> (<em>non-approved joint issue</em>) with a limited description to avoid further questions on this specific topic</li> </ul> <p>Probably, there are still some other Italian territorial issues that are missing in the catalogue. Do not hesitate to come back with some new suggestions. Here, illustrations of some of the new additions.</p> <div data-carousel-extra='{"blog_id":200033749,"permalink":"https:\/\/philarz.com\/2024\/07\/02\/random-news-july-2024\/"}'

at the occasion of the World Post Day, was a Sunday. This is not the best day for launching a stamp and we preferred waiting a few days to collect a maximum of information around this issue in order to include also stamps that were released after this official date. We were not disappointed and we received a lot of additional information from our friends Kenneth Sequeira (Dubai), Ali Ahmed Med Achour (Algeria), Don Birschel (USA), Enzo Cafaro (Italy), Kenneth Sequeira (Singapore) and others. Thanks to all of them.</p> <p>So far (the list is probably not complete), the countries having issued stamps with the UPU design include the followings: <strong>Belarus</strong>, <strong>Bosnia Herzegovina</strong>, <strong>Cambodia</strong>, <strong>Croatia</strong>, <strong>Egypt</strong>, <strong>Fiji</strong> (September 22, release date, but official FDC dated October 9), <strong>Russia</strong> (October 7), <strong>Serbia</strong> (October 7), <strong>Sri Lanka</strong>, , <strong>Syria </strong>(1 stamp, 1 souvenir sheet), <strong>Thailand</strong>, <strong>Tunisia</strong>, <strong>Turkey</strong>. All these countries have issued one single stamp at the date of October 9, 2022, except otherwise stated.</p> <p><strong>Algeria</strong> (October 9, 2022) participated as well but adapted the design.

There are no counterparts reported in the Italian philatelic program and there is a great doubt that Italy will change its program within the next weeks.</p> <p>The <strong>Ecuador-Mexico</strong> joint issue in honor of the heroes of independency Leona Vicario and Manuela Saenz was not issued on <strong>June 1, 2022</strong>, as scheduled. It seems the issue of these stamps will again be delayed, as the date had already been changed twice this year. Any information is welcome.</p> <p>The Cyprus-Israel joint issue that was once listed on the Israel program has disappeared from this list. No stamp was issued on the originally scheduled date of June 28, 2022. </p> <p>On the positive side, names of countries involved in the next Euromed issue are now accumulating. The present list of countries having guaranteed participation to this issue include: <strong>Bosnia Herzegovina (November 15) – Croatia (July 11) – France (July 8) – Greece (July 11) – Portugal (July 11) – Slovenia (July 11) – Tunisia (July 11) – Turkey (July 9)</strong>. More are to come and, compared to last year, we could expect participation from the following countries as well: Albania, Cyprus, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Malta, Montenegro, Morocco and Spain. The complete list will be published in Volume 15 of the catalogue, after <strong>July 11, 2022</strong>, the most common and new reference date for this issue. In the meantime, some pictures of the already disclosed projects.</p> <div data-carousel-extra='{"blog_id":200033749,"permalink":"https:\/\/philarz.com\/2022\/07\/03\/mid-year-review\/"}' class="wp-block-jetpack-tiled-gallery is-style-rectangular"><div class="tiled-gallery__gallery"><div class="tiled-gallery__row"><div class="tiled-gallery__col" style="flex-basis:32.51465%;"><figure class="tiled-gallery__item"><img data-attachment-id="1445" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2022/07/03/mid-year-review/20220711franceeuromedproject-1/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg" data-orig-size="511,752" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1656848772","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}" data-image-title="20220711franceeuromedproject-1" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg?w=204" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg?w=511" data-attachment-id="1445" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2022/07/03/mid-year-review/20220711franceeuromedproject-1/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg" data-orig-size="511,752" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"","caption":"","created_timestamp":"1656848772","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}" data-image-title="20220711franceeuromedproject-1" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg?w=204" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg?w=511" srcset="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg?strip=info&w=511 511w" alt="" data-height="752" data-id="1445" data-link="https://philarz.com/2022/07/03/mid-year-review/20220711franceeuromedproject-1/" data-url="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg?w=511" data-width="511" src="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711franceeuromedproject-1.jpg" /></figure></div><div class="tiled-gallery__col" style="flex-basis:67.48535%;"><figure class="tiled-gallery__item"><img data-attachment-id="1428" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2022/07/03/mid-year-review/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg" data-orig-size="513,363" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"CanoScan LiDE 400","caption":"","created_timestamp":"","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}" data-image-title="20220711sloveniaeuromedproject" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg?w=513" data-attachment-id="1428" data-permalink="https://philarz.com/2022/07/03/mid-year-review/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject/" data-orig-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg" data-orig-size="513,363" data-comments-opened="1" data-image-meta="{"aperture":"0","credit":"","camera":"CanoScan LiDE 400","caption":"","created_timestamp":"","copyright":"","focal_length":"0","iso":"0","shutter_speed":"0","title":"","orientation":"1"}" data-image-title="20220711sloveniaeuromedproject" data-image-description="" data-image-caption="" data-medium-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg?w=300" data-large-file="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg?w=513" srcset="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg?strip=info&w=513 513w" alt="" data-height="363" data-id="1428" data-link="https://philarz.com/?attachment_id=1428" data-url="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg?w=513" data-width="513" src="https://philarz.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/20220711sloveniaeuromedproject.jpg" /></figure></div></div></div></div> <p>Finally, take a look at this web link of interest, the site of Mark Joseph Jochim, <a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://www.philatelicpursuits.com/2022-2/2022-schedules-a/" target="_blank">Philatelic Pursuits</a>, which provides information about the stamp issue programs of all countries.
