2018 1c Knotted Gun

Get the 2018 UN Knotted Gun Stamp Issued by the New York Office

On October 2, 2018, the United Nations Postal Administration issued three stamps picturing Non-Violence sculptures.  The original sculpture was made in 1980 by Swedish artist Carl Frederik Reuterswärd in honor of John Lennon.  Today, similar sculptures have popped up in locations around the world.  There's even an example at the United Nations' headquarters in New York City.  This image is also used by the Non-Violence Project, a non-profit organization hoping to encourage people everywhere to seek peaceful resolution to problems rather than resorting to violence.
