Denmark – Scott # 842, used

Description

Denmark Scott #842 (1987) – Rowing (VM Roning) – Used

This Danish commemorative stamp celebrates competitive rowing, issued in 1987 in connection with international rowing championships (VM Roning, World Rowing Championships). The design shows a single sculler cutting cleanly through the water, rendered in cool blue tones that emphasize motion, balance, and athletic precision.

Rowing has long held an important place in Danish sporting culture, particularly in coastal and river communities. The minimalist composition and strong horizontal lines reflect Scandinavian design sensibilities while conveying strength, endurance, and calm control.

This example is offered used, with a visible circular cancellation that does not detract from the central image. A strong thematic piece for collectors of Denmark, sports stamps, or Olympic and rowing-related philately.
