35th Anniversary
This souvenir sheet was issued to celebrate the thirty-fifth anniversary of the United Nations. Several countries became members of the United Nations since the last souvenir sheet was issued in October 1975 for the thirtieth anniversary. In fact, they added thirteen this time.
Eight island nations became members of the U.N.: Papua New Guinea, Comoros, Dominica, Samoa, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Seychelles, and Solomon Islands. Three countries from mainland Africx – Angola, Djibouti, and Zimbabwe – were admitted. One from South America, Suriname, and one from Asia, Viet Nam joined.
Note
There’s no theme or slogan for this five-year anniversary. I guess they realized what I’m been saying, that there’s no point to them – or that they’re redundant. The sheet stamps matching these two stamps are on the previous album page, at the end of the second row.
Contains 1 spots: own 1 – 1 unused, 0 used.
