| Description | Because of the 100th birth anniversary of Czeslaw Slania, Denmark, Greenland and the Faroe Islands each issued their own souvenir sheet, all featuring Slania's portrait but with different backgrounds, typical for each country. An overview of the town of Klaksvík is engraved on the Faroese stamp sheet with Kunoy island’s southernmost end reigning supreme in the background. The souvenir sheets are engraved by the renowned engraver Martin Mörck. In 1967 Czeslaw Slania engraved his first series of 3 stamps for the Faroese Postal Service. In total he engraved 100 stamps for the Faroe Islands. |
