Women’s national costume, seasons and additional value

A brand new stamp series ‘Women’s national costume’ commences Greenland’s 2016 stamp year. Lisbeth Karline has created four beautiful designs depicting the female national costume. The stamps are being issued in normal sheets and are also featured in a stamp booklet.

This year’s SEPAC stamp will be released within a series under the theme of ‘Seasons’. The two stamps of the series will also be issued in normal sheets.

The 2016 additional value stamp, designed by Julie Hardenberg, is being issued for the benefit of children in the organization ‘MIO’ which stands for ‘Meeqqat Inuusuttullu Oqaloqatigiinnittarfiat’. ‘MIO’ works to strengthen children’s rights in Greenland. The stamp will be released in normal sheets, souvenir sheets and also in an attractive souvenir folder.
