| Abstract: | Malta's first stamp, the Queen Victoria Half Penny Yellow, engraved by Jean de la Ferte, always had a special attraction for me, and my collection was awarded at F.I.P. Exhibitions, Large Gold in Vienna, Gold in Milan, Tokyo, Barcelona, and Large Vermeil with special prises in nine other European countries, including London 1980. This stamp was issued on the 1st December 1860, and remained in use up to the 1st January 1885, when the first definitive set of Malta was issued. [excerpt] |
