Description
China (Republic of China – Taiwan) — World Health Organization 10th Anniversary Issues 40c–2.00 (Scott 1193–1195)
This clean, symbol-driven commemorative trio from the Republic of China (Taiwan), cataloged as Scott 1193–1195, was issued to mark the 10th anniversary of the World Health Organization (WHO). The set reflects mid-20th-century internationalist design through restrained color palettes and strong institutional symbolism.
Scott 1193 (40 cents, blue) features the WHO emblem centered over a world map, framed by laurel branches that symbolize cooperation, health, and global responsibility.
Scott 1194 (1.60 dollars, red) presents the same design in warmer tones, emphasizing urgency and commitment to public health initiatives.
Scott 1195 (2.00 dollars, violet) completes the set with deeper coloration, reinforcing the authority and global reach of the organization.
Each stamp bears Chinese inscriptions noting the WHO anniversary, paired with the emblem’s recognizable caduceus-and-globe motif. All three stamps are offered in mint never hinged (MNH) condition, retaining full original gum, sharp perforations, and clean, unfaded color.
A concise and visually unified set appealing to collectors of United Nations–related themes, public health issues, Taiwan philately, and mid-century commemorative design.
