2023 Year book of Swiss stamps

A book full of little works of art: year after year, the year book brings together the latest stamps in an impressive image editorial, telling the background stories to the latest issues.

Even in the age of digitization, stamps are still of far greater importance to us than their monetary value would suggest. They tell of events, values and achievements and pay tribute to Swiss nature or significant and outstanding figures. The year book documents these multifaceted stories and visual worlds, making it a unique memento.

Running to 120 pages, the 2023 year book presents 51 original stamps, each inserted with care. The many illustrations reveal a play between the stamp designs and surprising presentations. They are by Attila Janes, occasionally supplemented with illustrations by Christoph Frei.

The ideal gift for stamp enthusiasts, design aficionados and history buffs, or for children as a chronicle of the year of their birth.

 

^{Representing a valuable record of our times, the year book presents all Swiss stamps and first-day cancellations for 2023, along with an exclusive black print, on over 100 pages in four languages (de/fr/it/en). The “J. R. R. Tolkien 1892–1973” stamps are not included.}
