100 years UPAEP

I wrote in an earlier message about the little cousin of the Europa stamps collection, the America stamps !

PostEurop being in charge of coordinating the Europa stamps, for the America stamps it's the UPAEP (Unión Postal de las Américas, España y Portugal) - PUASP (Postal Union of the Americas, Spain and Portugal) en english.

The UPAEP is celebrating their 100 years anniversary this year and it has been commemorated by many stamp issues from the UPAEP member countries.


Besides those anniversary issues, America stamps will also be issued later this year on the common them "Mail boxes".
