Fifty Years of Achievements in Space, United Nations Geneva

From the Geneva office. The two stamps are from a 2007 set of three and a souvenir sheet, with three different issues across the three UN offices. They commemorate 50 years of achievements in space, declaring space for humanity.

United Nations, Vienna Office

I've received a few covers from the UN, from the office in New York. These two from Vienna arrived on the same day. On the first cover is a 2022 stamp showing Montecatini Terme in Italy, from a series about European spa towns. And on the right is a 2018 World Health Day stamp.


On this cover from left to right, a 2010 International Year of Biodiversity definitive stamp with an illustration of a Aracana aurita, a 2008 definitive stamp featuring Austrian composer Johann Strauss II, and finally a World Humanitarian Aid Day added value stamp from 2022.

United Nations, New York Office

United Nation flag stamps: Mongolia, Iraq, Argentina, Zimbabwe and Vanuatu. These were issued in 1987. It's was a long running series, started back in 1980 I believe. Issuing a few stamps in the series each year meant it took a while to get through all 195 member states. Or whatever it was at the time. The stamp at the lower left corner is a 1983 World Communications Year commemorative.
