"Gibraltar is issuing Europa stamps non stop since 1979
They never used the CEPT nor the Europa logo as they are not member of PostEurop
Their Europa stamps are considered by the collectors as full part of the collection
They don't follow the recommendation of PostEurop of issuing only one or two stamps each year as their sets are always of 4 stamps those last years."
