Common Themes

These fascinating stamps are from Fujeira, a part of the United Arab Emirates. The artwork highlights Gemini and Apollo milestones (possibly Mercury as well, looking more closely at the capsule stamp.) The images are artistic and vividly colored. I wish I could find better pictures, or at the very least, ones without postmarks (or whatever that over-stamping in gold ink is.)
