Stamps of Fujairah: 1967 – March 1969
Stamps issues from 1967 up to March 1969
Advertising brochure (Reduced) for the 11th May additional issue – states that these stamps are ‘produced in brilliant six-colour photogravure …one of the most colorful stamp issues ever to be released’!
Each stamp was produced in miniature sheet format – but never issued! Then they were released overprinted Moon Landing/ Apollo 11 either in Gold or Metallic Blue. Only 500 sets were issued. This concept of producing the set in minisheets was used quite extensively by other ‘Trucial States’ – but not often by “Fujeira”.
One of the deluxe minisheets used on cover to US. Interesting how there is no mention of this format on the official publicity of this issue. How did customers know that they are available? Some literature indicates that only 500 sets were produced.
