Greetings friends!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Today, I am ready to present the latest postage stamp from the series of postage stamps "Flowers-Roses", issued in 1979 in Cuba, which is in my collection.
This postage stamp is 13 Cuban centavos and features Rosa muscosa.
This journey in the world of roses is interrupted only for the time that it will take for me to replenish this series with two more postage stamps in denominations of 5 and 20 Cuban centavos. Hopefully one day this series will be complete.
Collecting postage stamps and other collectibles is always a fun quest in which there is no defeat, there may be some pauses, but not a loss.
By the time I start looking hard, I hope that my collection of photographs of roses will be replenished as well.
The Cuban authorities knew that it was a win-win to issue a series of postage stamps featuring these beautiful flowers.
Let's take a look at this postage stamp.

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
