Europe. Ancient Postal Routes

On April 22, 2020, the Czech Post issued a postage stamp as part of the "Europe. Ancient Postal Routes" issue.

The stamp drawing is based on an old horse carriage for transporting mail. The artist Jan Maget added yellow and blue to the original drawing, which symbolize the modern Czech post office, thus creating a visible connection between the past and the present of the postal service in the Czech Republic.
