The logo for the 50th
Anniversary of the
Federation of Inter-Asian Philately, featuring a pale
grayish-blue background. At its center is a white square showcasing a blue
hexagonal polygon outlined in gold, prominently displaying the number ‘50’
in matching gold. Beneath the number ‘50’ hexagon is a golden banner
inscribed with the text ‘Years Anniversary’, alongside the dates ‘1974–2024’
in white. Above the polygon, within a black circle, is a white envelope
marked with the abbreviation ‘F.I.A.P.’ in red. The entire design is framed
against a white background, highlighted by a blackish cancellation wave—a
distinctive pattern traditionally used to invalidate postage stamps. |
