| 1981: Australia Day |
A more stripped back map but we do have a flag

| 1959: 10th Anniversary of the DDR (Design - Grunewald) |
East Germany issued a extensive Flags set for their 10th Anniversary, these four feature 20 - Steel Worker, 40 - Leipzig Stadium, 50 - Tractor Driver, 70 - Shipbuilding

| 1991: Discount Stamps - Skansen 100 Years (Design T Oldenburg) |
The Swedish flag flies over Skansen Open Air Museum. The museum shows how life was lived in different parts of Sweden before industrialisation. Sounds like one could spend a lot of time in its 75 acres.

That Turkish stamp is indeed luscious!
The Australian cancel fits well with the map.
I'd almost forgotten what the DDR flag looked like.
I always like when countries celebrate their champions with a flag (something we don't do)
I remember watching the quarter-finals penalty shootout in a crowded bar in an tiny Italian hilltop village ... nail biting stuff and things got VERY noisy when France went through!!
I got that Turkish stamp on a postcard. It is even better in person. It is not difficult to understand people voting for this...
And aout the DDR stamps... I have one of those, but I hadn't realised there were some different designs!
Amazing stamp from Turkey. Thanks for sharing all of these today.
