Issued in 1961, this meaningful Poland stamp set commemorates the 15th anniversary of UNICEF (United Nations Children’s Fund), highlighting global humanitarian efforts focused on child welfare and health.
The 60 gr stamp features stylized children’s faces representing unity and international solidarity, while the 40 gr stamp depicts a vaccination scene symbolizing public health campaigns supported by UNICEF worldwide.
Designed in a striking mid-century graphic style, these stamps reflect the social themes commonly emphasized in Eastern European philatelic issues of the period.
They are popular among collectors specializing in UN themes, social welfare issues, and Poland commemoratives. Well-preserved mint sets with fresh colors remain especially desirable.
