Switzerland 2024 Pro Patria - The Fifth Switzerland Stamps printed with thermochromic ink
Issue date 21 March 2024
Swiss Post dedicated 2 special stamps printed with Thermal ink to Pro Patria - The Fifth Switzerland represented by Swiss Nationals living outside of Switzerland. Since 1916, the Organisation of the Swiss Abroad (OSA), a local community group, has been organizing holiday camps in Switzerland for young Swiss citizens between the ages of 15 and 18 who are resident abroad. Among the items on last summer’s agenda was the creation of the new Pro Patria stamps with the goal of producing two stamps representing the fifth Switzerland.
The first stamp depicts a cheese fondue with the black pan printed with thermochromic ink which when heat applied shows the Swiss Cross. The second stamp shows a woman with a black heart which when heated warms out to the Swiss Cross again.
