Description
Issued on the occasion of the hundredth anniversary of the emblematic building on rue Charles de Gaulle in Tunis (inaugurated in 1892), this stamp offers a precise architectural view of the monumental facade. The monochrome design highlights the neo-Moorish style, with its elegant arcades on the ground floor and its stone ornaments. This stamp celebrates not only a century of Tunisian postal administration, but also one of the jewels of downtown Tunis, testifying to the sustainability and historical importance of communication services in the building of the modern state.
