2024Centenary of Unity in Greenland - First Day Cover

As mentioned in the previous issue of this magazine, Tusass Greenland is participating in the HAFNIA 24 exhibition in Copenhagen, 17th to 20th October 2024. To mark the event we are presenting our HAFNIA 24 - special issue, which comprises two stamps in sheets of 10 identical stamps and an attractive souvenir sheet. The latter is sold with an additional price of DKK 4, which will be donated in full to HAFNIA 24. The stamp issue is entitled ’Centenary of Unity in Greenland’. As a prelude to HAFNIA 24 and the above-mentioned special edition, we have enlisted the assistance of a close friend of Tusass Greenland, Flemming Petersen from Copenhagen. Flemming has for many years been the embodiment of philately. His interest in and knowledge of Greenland is also extensive. We bring you here his account of the centenary. The stamps and souvenir sheets were designed by Nina Spore Kreutzmann based on the historical materials provided by Flemming.
