USSR 1956 – Stamps promoting public health and sanitary education (Mi. 1831–1832)
A series of two mint stamps issued by the Soviet Post in 1956, commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Red Cross. These stamps are part of a propaganda philatelic issue promoting the protection of workers' health and the dissemination of sanitary knowledge among the Soviet population.
The first stamp (Mi. 1831) shows a scene with factory workers and a medical figure, with the inscription “ОХРАНЯЙТЕ ЗДОРОВЬЕ ТРУДЯЩИХСЯ” (Protect the health of workers), face value: 40 kopecks, country of issue: “ПОЧТА СССР”.
The second stamp (Mi. 1832) depicts a medical professional educating a group of citizens, with the inscription “ПРИОБРЕТАЙТЕ САНИТАРНЫЕ ЗНАНИЯ!” (Acquire sanitary knowledge), face value: 40 kopecks, country of issue: “ПОЧТА СССР”.
These stamps are an example of the use of philately as an educational and propaganda tool, highlighting the health priorities of the Soviet state. They are a valuable asset for collectors of medical and social themes and USSR iconography.
