Issued in 1949, this Norwegian 10 øre commemorative stamp celebrates the 75th anniversary of the Universal Postal Union (UPU), founded in 1874. The design features a central dove of peace surrounded by a wheel of symbolic global scenes — representing communication and connection among nations across all continents. The imagery includes cultural and geographical motifs such as city skylines, ships, religious domes, tropical palms, and kangaroos, highlighting the UPU’s mission of worldwide postal unity. The deep green background and white inscriptions lend the design a dignified, international aesthetic.
