The official presentation of Taipei Post Office.
Taiwan is an island with plenty of sunshine all year round as well as a variety of climate and topography all over the island. It is a suitable place to plant many fruits from tropical, subtropical and warm areas.
And thus, Taiwan has earned its international reputation as a "kingdom of fruits." Due to long-term research for the improvement of flower plants dedicated by agricultural experts, flowers in Taiwan are also well-known all over the world.
To demonstrate the diversity of Taiwan´s flowers and fruits, this souvenir sheet was designed with two triangular stamps pointing in opposite directions.
One of the stamps frames a diverse selection of fruits, such as banana, melon, grape, starfruit, Java apple (wax apple, or bell fruit),mango,peach,pear,packed into a bamboo basket, which delicately combines belief, life and farm produce. With colorful flowers in bottom sections for rival demonstration, the other frames azalea, the harbinger of spring.
