Extraordinary philatelic issue for the Emilian areas struck by earthquake
22.08.2012
This issue by San Marino – print run 150.000 sets – will be presented on the 30th of August and the net proceeds will be given for the rebuilding of the damaged area.
“Let’s reach our hands, give new blood to Emilian lands”, so says the text for the stamp.
The stamp features a plant that grows near the tower of Finale Emilia and leaves like fingers reaching the sky with a rebuilding brick.
This issue is born by an idea of the Direct of Azienda Autonoma Filatelia e Numismatica, Marino Manuzzi and the President Pier Orazio Pignatta. The aim is to create a union between philatelic art and solidarity.
