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.
