Default Croatian queries.


Thanks Victor,
my first issue for this painter then!
(I have both std issue, and overprinted)
I thought it a little odd at first, St Mary's seems to not be the main
focus,
until I read up on "Cistercian", then it became clear.
The engraving shows a somewhat "cartoon" feel, I'll
search Google for perhaps a coloured version.
A most apt stamp I thought for a Philatelic Exhibition.

The first two:

Any idea the artist of this work? (St Mary's Zagreb 1650)

The 10th anniv set, 1941-1951, I cannot find anywhere,
perhaps my SG simplified is not up to task, can anyone offer Cat Nums?
(I found the Yugoslav Postage dues "Franco", under Croatia)


Rodney,

The name of the painter is Vladimir Kirin. He was a painter from Croatia.

BTW, I own for a long time this stamp (not overprinted, if I remember well),
and I like it very much.
