Cover from Aland



A truly great cover from Aland which reached me after 3 days' travel (on 9 June 2008) from Mariehamn in the Aland archipelago. Aland is one of the smallest European postal administrations with a nice sober production of around 15 stamps a year.
This stamp won the poll at the EUROPA stamps blog as the best stamp of 2008 (theme: writing letters). I myself voted for it:-)
My thanks go to my Finnish friend L.
