- Our latest philatelic emission, presenting 6 Marshals of the Second Polish Republic, not only fits into the mission of our company, educating and indicating imitating patterns, but is also an important element of the extraordinary role of mail, which we proudly fill in. Caring for the preservation of tradition, we remind the figures who, arising from the independence ethos of the 1863 generation, shaped the reborn state of interwar Poland. Nowadays, it is worth showing attitudes and people for whom Poland, the affairs of the homeland and its citizens, the country's freedom and sovereignty were the highest good. Poczta Polska, a company with a 462-year tradition, consciously participates in its activities in supporting and promoting humanities and patriotic values. We are aware of the importance of these attitudes in shaping the young generation of Poles who only know the hardships of regaining and maintaining independence from history. That is why the "Marshals of the Second Polish Republic" stamps are, in my opinion, a great opportunity to celebrate the 102th anniversary of Poland regaining independence - said Wiesław Włodek, vice president of the Board of Poczta Polska.
Let us remind you that last year Poczta Polska issued a postage stamp commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Legislative Sejm. The first Marshal of the Second Polish Republic - Wojciech Trąmpczyński, was commemorated at the stamp.
- In the history of Polish parliamentarism there are many outstanding figures that had a significant impact on the fate of our homeland. Many Sejm marshals left us beautiful patterns of bold and prudent thinking about public matters. In the interwar period, those who guarded the rights and dignity of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland also took on the burden of responsibility for creating the legal foundations of the reviving Polish state. That is why I am glad that after the publication of the occasional stamp with the image of Wojciech Trąmpczyński, Poczta Polska introduces a series of postage stamps with portraits of the next six marshals of the Sejm of the Second Polish Republic. This is an expression of special recognition and great gratitude to the role they played in shaping the independent. I trust that this unique collection will also contribute to the dissemination of knowledge about distinguished states of state, whose deep concern for the good of the homeland deserves our respect and memory - Elżbieta Witek, Marshal of the Sejm of the Republic of Poland, said about the emission of stamps.
