Souvenir stamp sheet on the 80th anniversary of one of the first philatelic societies in Bulgaria

The Deputy Minister of Transport, Information Technology and Communications, Dimitar Genovski, validated a souvenir sheet on the 80th anniversary of Pleven Philatelic Society. The organization is among the first philatelic companies in Bulgaria and the town of Pleven itself is a metaphorical capital of Bulgarian philately as it hosted major forums such as World Youth Philatelic Exhibition and the Balkan Championship.

The sheet is designed by the Director of Pleven Philatelic Society, Nikolai Mladenov, and depicts the town at the time of the organization’s establishment.
