Cover no. 2 from Germany









Received today from Frankfurt am Main (17), a lovely pictorial cover with two commemorative stamps dedicated to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The 65c stamp (issued on 12 July 2007) shows a palace in Riga, Latvia along with two statues. The same stamps were issued in 2007 also in Latvia.

The larger 145c stamp was issued on 7 May 2009 and depicts five of the Luther Memorials in Eisleben and Wittenberg (Saxony-Anhalt). This stamp is also part of series of stamps dedicated to German UNESCO World Heritage sites issued this year by the United Nations in Vienna, Geneva and New York.

Thank you very much, Gabriela:)
