CURACAO - 2018

NEW ISSUE

I copy here the philatelic notice about the Lighthouse issue from CURACAO.  The long awaited issue.  The technical data informs that the issue date was in july, not in june. That is the reason, (I believe) for the delay of info and images of this release.
Click over the image to see in more detail the stamps.
A strong candidate to Lighthouse stamp of the year.
