Folklore Dancers, Papua New Guinea


For me Papua New Guinea is one of the most mysterious and hence attractive countries...These folklore dancers in their flamboyant costumes look impressive don't they! Must be quite an experience to witness it with your own eyes...Issued in 1971, showing Siaa, Urasena and Siassi Tubuan dancers.

วันแรกจำหน่าย04 สิงหาคม 2554
(heh this is the first info I found)
A special stamp collection featuring the Likay traditional play, issued on 4 August 2011 to mark the opening of the 17th Thailand Philatelic Exhibition, or Thaipex 2011.
And how beautiful are these stamps?! I have received a couple on a postcard once, now I have the whole set, yay :)) You cannot see it on the scan but there are glittering touches on the colourful costumes! Complete with different cancellations. And inside a standard postal postcard with perforated stamp rim, very cool :) Thanks so much Nina, who can wish for more? :)))
