Brazil 2016 Rio Olympics Special Edition with 3D Anaglyph Stamps

Issue date June-August 2016 (on Brazil Post Website the Souvenir Sheet is placed between 26 June 2016 issue and 08 August 2016 Souvenir sheets issue)

To commemorate the Olympic flag handover to Brazil, in a ceremony promoted by the Rio 2016™ Organising Committee for the  Olympic Games (5-21 August 2016) and Paralympic Games (7-18 September 2016), at Somerset House, London, where Casa Brasil (Brazil House) is located, Brazil Post has issued a 2 set Souvenir Sheet with 3D Anaglyph printing.

Printed in June 2012 in time to celebrate the handover of the Olympic Games from London to Rio, these souvenir sheets were being withheld from release by Brazil Post because of a licensing dispute with the Olympic Games organizing committee. 

The two souvenir sheets – one for the 2016 Olympic Games  and the other for the 2016 Paralympic Games – show the same scene in the background: Rio’s Sugarloaf Mountain and city below. The two stamps on the Olympic sheet bear the 2016 Olympic Games logo. One of the se-tenant stamps depicts Big Ben and Tower Bridge, while the other is an artistic representation of Sugarloaf Mountain. The Paralympic Games logo appears on each of the two stamps on the second sheet. In this case London’s Olympic Eye Ferris wheel is displayed on the first stamp while the second shows the famous Christ the Redeemer statue atop an artistic representation of  Corcovado mountain. The two souvenir sheets were issued in quantities of 15,000 sheets of each. The stamps in the two souvenir sheets are each denominated at R$2.60.

Australia 2016 Endangered Wildlife Flocked Stamp sheets Set

Issue date 20 September 2017

As per Australian Post Website - 

This stamp issue represents endangered animals that are part of current zoo and/or other conservation programs in Australia. These animals are at risk of extinction and are classified as either Endangered or Critically Endangered according to Australian and international measures. Three animals are exotic and four are native.

The large definitive stamp, representing the Southern Corroboree Frog Pseudophryne corroboree, commemorates the centenary of Taronga Zoo in NSW, which has breeding programs for this rare frog. At just 2.5–3cm in length, this small, brightly coloured amphibian is one of the world’s rarest frogs.

The carnivorous Snow Leopard Panthera uncia syn. Uncia uncia is a large cat native to mountain ranges of central and south Asia at altitudes of 3,000 to 4,500 metres. These cats are rarely seen because they inhabit harsh terrain with an extreme climate and are distributed across a range of over two million square kilometres across 12 countries.

The Asian Elephant Elephas maximus used to roam over most of Asia, but is now restricted to just 15 per cent of its original range. The population has declined by at least 50 per cent over the last 60–75 years. The most recent estimate of the global population is 41,430.

The Western Lowland Gorilla Gorilla gorilla gorilla is a large primate native to the rainforests of central Africa, specifically in lowland forest and swamp forest from sea level to about 1,600 metres. Gorillas are mainly herbivorous. Their staple foods are pith, shoots and leaves. They also eat many species of fruit.

The short-necked freshwater Western Swamp Tortoise Pseudemydura umbrina is found only in two locations in a small area of the Swan Coastal Plain in Western Australia. It is Australia’s most endangered reptile and measures just 11 to 13cm from nose to tail.

One of the world’s rarest and most endangered species, the Orange-bellied Parrot Neophema chrysogaster, is on the brink of extinction. It is listed as Critically Endangered under the EPBC Act and on the IUCN Red List.

The Northern Quoll Dasyurus hallucatus is a small, omnivorous marsupial that once occurred across extensive areas of northern Australia. It has now contracted to only isolated populations.

The above information helps us to decide their future now..

The stamps have been printed with a flock relief effect.
