The fifth card in a series being issued by Maltapost on a date when the day, month and year coincide - tomorrow, 05.05.05 - will be issued by the philatelic bureau of Maltapost plc tomorrow and will be available from all branch post offices in Malta and Gozo and from the Maltapost mobile unit.

The first card in this series had been issued on January 1, 2001, with a date stamp carrying the same figures. The last card in this very collectable series is expected to be issued on 12 December 2012, and stamped with the figures 12.12.12.

This year's card will carry a 16c stamp from the United Europe issue, stamped with the May 5, 2005 date, and will be on sale until stocks last.

Philatelists and the public are advised that this card can be sent through the post to any destination without additional postage, provided it is posted by not later than May 7. Cards similarly cancelled and posted after this date are to carry stamps to cover the required postage.

Further details regarding this philatelic card can be obtained from the philatelic bureau on 2123 9153 or philately@maltapost.com
