The Malta Stamp Collection 1964 – 2004 – Circa 2004

In pristine condition. On 17th April 2004, Maltapost launched this highly collectible collection of Maltese stamps, including 1,100 stamps in mint condition, issued by Malta from the time it declared independence in 1964 through to its EU accession in 2004. About 50 of the stamps were declared to be rare. With an introduction by the then President Eddie Fenech Adami, the collection includes a 380 page cloth bound volume, with red tipped pages offering specific background on every issue. Each number was hand numbered, comes with a special certificate of authenticity and includes a first day cover of the EU accession stamps cancelled in gold. The collection is housed within a specially designed folder and comes with its own presentation box
