POS Malaysia Bhd has unveiled the Horse Series 2 Special Stamp Collection, a continuation of Malaysia’s longstanding appreciation for the many roles horses have played across culture, community and sport.
This second instalment highlights three significant facets of Malaysia’s horse-related heritage – Horseback Archery, Endurance Riding and The Bajau Samah Horse, also known as the Paddy Pony or kuda padi, an iconic symbol deeply rooted in Sabah’s cultural landscape.
The release also comes at a timely moment with the Year of the Horse in conjunction with Chinese New Year, making the collection especially meaningful for collectors and enthusiasts celebrating the cultural symbolism of the horse during the festive season.
The collection features two beautifully illustrated stamp designs and a specially crafted miniature sheet enhanced with Spot UV finishing, which accentuates key visual elements with added texture and depth.
The artworks portray the grace, versatility, and cultural importance of horses across sport, heritage and community.
The Horse Series 2 Folder Set is priced at RM55.80 and includes a complete range of philatelic items: two stamp designs of 50sen and RM1.30 stamps, a miniature sheet and a First Day Cover bearing the stamps.
There is another First Day Cover featuring the miniature sheet and an exclusive folder produced specifically for this release.
The Horse Series 2 stamps are available for purchase at 90 Philatelic Bureaus nationwide, includes 13 general post offices and selected post offices, and the Pos Malaysia online store at www.pos.com.my/shop, while stocks last.
