Beautiful Stamps of Malaysia - Bantams
Pos Malaysia does from time to time issue beautiful stamps. One of the beautiful stamp sets that I treasure so much is the bantam stamp set released on August 1, 2001. The bantam images on the stamps and miniature sheet were designed by Mr. Teh Yew Kiang who is a well unknown Malaysian artist specializing in birds! In fact, Mr. Teh has been assisting Pos Malaysia in the design of bird stamps. The latest bird stamp issue (unique birds of Malaysia) was also the artwork of Mr. Teh.
the stamp set contains three denominations - 30 sen, 50 sen and RM1
perforated miniature sheet
imperforated miniature sheet
the miniature sheet was overprinted for Phila Nippon 2001
