1 in stock
Issued by France in 1978, this charming semi-postal stamp illustrates the classic fable “Le Rat de ville et le Rat des champs” (The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse). Designed by Andreotto, it contrasts urban luxury with rural simplicity through finely detailed engraving. The additional surcharge (+0.30) supported the Red Cross, highlighted by the red emblem on the stamp. Its storytelling composition and dual-scene layout make it especially appealing to thematic collectors of literature and charity issues. A fine example of French semi-postal artistry from the late 20th century.
