This is the second of the two-part feature on Jed’s Periodic Collection of Philippine Stamps. Periodic means “as they are released”, and once again, I am posting the stamps in chronological order. Part one has 25 photos filled with images of political, social, cultural and economic importance. This part has 24 images dominated by politics, culture and sports and the recurring Anti-TB Semi-Postals. The last item makes me think of the state of TB (tuberculosis) awareness in the 1960’s.
The stand-out stamps for me are the Presidential Gem Series (because I like half of the featured presidents which includes my favorite president), Philippine Folk Dances (because they depict Filipino grace at its finest and the highlighted dances are innately Filipino), Philippine Musical Instruments and Philippine Animals. Check out Tourist Publicity and Tourist Type of 1970. They are the embodiment of how we wish we and our tourist destinations look like. *Sigh*
