PORTUGAL - The Cork Stamp

2007 - Sector Corticeiro
Afinsa # 3655

  1. Issued in November 2007, this unique stamp is printed on very thinly sliced cork (0.35 mm). Printed on the cork substrate is a stylized image of a cork tree sitting atop a hill. 
  2. The stamp brings attention to Portugal's cork industry, which provides well over 30% of the world's market for cork. Some of it's non-philatelic uses are as stoppers for bottles, fishing floats, gaskets, and bulletin boards.

SUIÇA - The St.Gallen Embroidery

2000 -The world's first embroidered stamp
Scott # 1075  (Self-Adhesive)

  The stamp, shown above, was presented for the first time at the National Philatelic Exhibition in St. Gallen, Eastern Switzerland. This stamp is special because for the first time in the history of philately it doesn't limit itself to show a reproduction of an embroidery, it is a real embroidery, inspired by a traditional design, and appealing to modern manufacturing techniques.
