"Sweden issued their first Europa stamp in 1960. Then they waited 9 more years to issue their second Europa stamp in order to celebrate the 10 years of the CEPT, in 1969."

"We had to wait untill 1974 to have the next issue, but since then Sweden took always part with 2, 3 or 4 stamps."

"Sweden is famous for their roll-stamps, easily recognizable by the fact that the don't have any perforation on both sides of each stamp! They issue also most of their stamps in booklets."
