On the 15th of November at the Museum of African Art, a personalized postage stamp dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the Algerian Revolution was presented
A personalized postage stamp dedicated to the seventieth anniversary of the outbreak of the Algerian Revolution, on which, along with the Algerian flag, the portraits of the founder of the Museum of African Art Zdravko Pečar and the cameraman of “Filmskih Novosti” Stevan Labudović, was presented at the Museum of African Art in Senjak. The director of this Museum, Dr. Marija Aleksić, welcomed the guests and pointed out that the Algerian Revolution was a struggle for the independence of Algeria and a symbol of resistance to colonialism in general.
The importance of celebrating the jubilee and the symbolism of the show were also addressed by the ambassador of Algeria in Belgrade, H. E. Fatah Mahraz, and acting Director of the Post of Serbia, Zoran Anđelković, who expressed his satisfaction that the Post of Serbia contributed to the commemoration of the jubilee of the Algerian War of Independence.
Ambassador Mahraz thanked the organizers of the edition and the Post of Serbia for the philatelic contribution and previous cooperation, because three postage stamps were published since 2013 in honor of the friendship between Algeria and Serbia.
The personalized stamp was prepared by the Museum of African Art, the Society of Friends of Algeria, “Filmske Novosti”, the Association “Adligat” and the Embassy of Algeria in Serbia, in cooperation with the Post of Serbia. Professional assistance in the realization of the edition was provided by the Museum of African Art and the Society of Friends of Algeria. The artistic realization is the work of Nadežda Skočajić, creator of Post Serbia stamps.
