A few days ago I received a letter from an old friend of mine who collects stamps including Malta’s. He has asked me to buy him a set of the last stamps issue by Maltapost on March 18, 2014.
This keen philatelist remarked that the set of stamps issued in Christmas 2013 were Malta’s worst stamps ever produced. The size was minute (3.5cm x 2cm) and one needs a magnifying glass to identify the denomination.
It would be interesting if Maltese stamp collectors commented on the size, image and any other characteristics of these stamps.
I am not a stamp collector myself but I have always admired our excellently-produced Malta stamps. Not this tiny Christmas 26c stamp though, which I have to use every day.
