Philately Fridays: Two from Germany


Probably for the same reason I love amusement park maps, I love super clean architectural illustrations like the ones in these two stamps from Germany. The first one celebrates the 75th anniversary of the suspended tram in Wuppertaler and the second one is for the Sport Und Erholungszentrum recreation center in Berlin.

Two stamps from Germany all about SPORTS! No idea why the illustrator got all wavy with everything, but it works for me.
