2017 68c Samba Dancers-Day of Dance

Get the Second Set of the Popular International Dance Day Stamps

In April 2016, the UN Postal Administration issued a set of stamps commemorating International Dance Day.  They proved so popular, the UNPA released a second set on March 23, 2017.  Like the first set, these stamps include six panes (two from each issuing office) with six stamps on each pane.  The pane is a continuous design.

The stamps issued by the Vienna UN office were created by Victo Ngai, an illustrator originally from Hong Kong who lives in Los Angeles.  The €0.68 stamps honor the samba, and the €0.80 pane pays tribute to ballet.
