The mini Focus on stamps

Small, but impressive! Just like Focus on stamps, but a mini version for kids. The collection booklet in A5 format for girls and boys between the ages of seven and ten is published four times a year. In the set this time: four stamps valid for postage, two cancelled stamps and postcards to draw on. With their two friends Phila and Franco, young collectors will learn fascinating things about the world of stamps and Swiss Post and get creative ideas for arts and crafts and writing.

The focus in this issue: how did people actually write before paper was invented? To find out, Phila and Franco go back to ancient Egypt – to the era of stone tablets and hieroglyphics. The pair also celebrate the birthday of Swiss Post, which is 175 years old this year.

The stamp set for children is available at postshop.ch and all Swiss Post branches as a single issue for 12 francs or at a discounted rate on subscription at swisspost.ch/stamp-subscriptionsTarget not accessible.
