20 years ago, the desires and expectations of generations of Poles living during Europe divided by an iron curtain - Poland joined the European Union. On the anniversary of these events, Poczta Polska introduced into circulation a unique emission stamp " The 20th anniversary of Poland's accession to the European Union".
Last years in the European community are a time of unprecedented development of our country. Each of us can give examples of spectacular changes in our closer and further environment, which have a positive impact on everyday life and development prospects. Time has shown that joining Poland to the European Union was the right decision, and Poles and Poles were able and still able to use their chances. To celebrate the 20th anniversary of accession, Poczta Polska and Polish Securities Factory jointly prepared an occasional stamp.
PWPW has graphically developed a design of the value in which a photo of the European Parliament in Strasbourg was placed. The choice of the European Parliament building as a primary element of the graphic design is not accidental. In this way, the importance of the fact that MPs are elected by all citizens of the community in a widespread, direct vote, which makes this institution the most democratic authority of the European Union, fully embarrassing the EU's motto: "United in diversity".
In the graphics, the stamp in the block, in addition to the European Parliament building, presented a map of countries that currently form the European Union. The FDC envelope (on the first day of circulation) is decorated with intertwining Polish and European Union flags, while in the date the Polish flag stylized on the rite was included.
