History
Romania's postal service, 'Posta Romana,' has a long history dating back to the 19th century. Stamps issued during the communist era often featured themes of nature, industry, and national achievements. This stamp, part of a presumed flora series, reflects a common trend of celebrating the natural world. The year 1964 falls within a period of relative stability and cultural output in Romania.
Facts
The scientific name 'Cornus mas L.' is visible on the stamp, identifying the plant as Cornelian cherry, which produces red, edible fruits often mistaken for small peppers. This detail adds botanical accuracy and educational value for collectors interested in flora. The stamp's design is typical of mid-20th-century European philately, emphasizing clear imagery and informative text.
Value Fact
Stamps from Romania featuring botanical themes and from the 1960s are generally considered moderately collectible. Their market value depends heavily on condition, centering, and the specific series they belong to. This particular stamp, depicting popular fruits, would likely fall within a price range of $0.25 to $2.00, with exceptionally well-preserved examples potentially fetching slightly more.
