Subcategory - Miniature Sheets with Materials Affixed/Cloth Stamps
Surprised that I had not updated my blog on this sheet considering its one of the most sought unusual item among the Unusual Stamp collector's list. Rumored that it was sold at a Chinese Embassy to collectors to fund Morocco Development Fund (not substantiated with facts - no official statement on its release though mentioned on Morocco Post presentation on the innovations of Morocco Post in its stamp issues). Also rumored that a limited number was produced and distributed as gifts among the Moroccan and Chinese Officials attending the launch of the stamps in Morocco. No comments from my end but you just got to admire the beauty of the stamp presented on Silk and affixed with a porcelain jar.
