Philately (Postage Stamps)

1972 Andorra Spanish Post Skier and Mountain Landscape Postage Stamp

This is a 2 peseta postage stamp issued by the Spanish postal administration for Andorra in 1972. The vertical rectangular stamp features a polychrome design depicting a snowy mountain vista viewed through a dark, arched stone doorway. In the foreground, red skis are stuck vertically into the snow. The text '2 PTAS' is located in the upper left, while 'CORREOS ANDORRA' is prominently displayed across the bottom in a stylized font. Smaller text at the bottom edge reads 'PAS DE LA CASA' (a ski resort area) and the printer initials 'F.N.M.T.' for the Fabrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre. The stamp is printed on paper with standard perforations on all four sides. It appears to be mounted on a black backer inside a collector's album page with a handwritten grid and the year '1972' visible below. The condition looks excellent with crisp edges, no visible heavy cancels (suggesting it may be mint or lightly used), and vibrant colors. The craftsmanship reflects the mid-century aesthetic of European commemorative philately, utilizing high-quality offset lithography or gravure printing to capture the depth of the snowy scenery and the texture of the stone archway.
