POST Luxembourg’s commemorative stamps

Each year, POST Luxembourg issues around thirty stamps on various themes, which are used both for mailing and as genuine collector’s items.

Are you celebrating a well-known figure from your institution or municipality? Are you organising a major event for local life? Is your association marking an anniversary?
