My Frustrating Romanian Souvenir Sheets
May I introduce you to new article that refers to some souvenir sheets
issued by the Romanian Post over a decade, starting by the year 1971. Before 1971 the stately owned State Commercial Enterprise Philately (ICS Filatelia) strongly limited the number of issues to be sold over their face value to collectors, like the Olympic Games in Innsbruck (1963), Olympic Games in Tokyo and World Cosmonauts (1964). The situation changed radically on July 23, 1971, the day that was and will remain a black one for the Romanian philately, the day when was issued the imperforated souvenir sheet named Soyuz 11, dedicated to the death during their mission of three Soviet cosmonauts. Unlike whatever happened before, this souvenir sheet, followed by others, most of them covering high-interest topics such as the conquest of the outer space and Olympic games, could not be purchased legally in Romania , the country on whose behalf it was issued.

The American Philatelic Society (APS) announced its Black Blot program in the 1962 April issue of "The American Philatelist". See "Black Blot 1962 * 1977 the first years of an APS education program", compiled by Barbara W. de Violini, 1978 American Philatelic Society. Quote:
