September 4, 2019 Czech Post issued the definitive stamp Winner over Time.

Karel Zeman - a famous Czech graphic designer allegory of the struggle over time portrayed in the form of a horseman with a spear hitting either a dragon or a gargoyle. The mark of the stamp is filled with symbols of time: the pendulum and the dial of the watch in the background are clearly visible, they are also shown on the stamp’s tab.

I don’t know why, but when I looked at this stamp, I immediately remembered the famous clock on the tower of the Old Town Hall in Prague, with its large intricate dials and decorative figures.

Denomination of stamp "A", which corresponds to the tariff for sending a simple letter weighing up to 50 gr. Stamps were issued in a small sheet of 9 stamps and 12 coupons.
