Issued in 1963, this elegant two-stamp set from Belgium commemorates the 350th anniversary (1613-1963) of the Confrérie St. Michel Gilde — the Saint Michael Fencing Guild of Ghent. The 1 franc stamp depicts 17th-century duelists in period attire before the Ghent Belfry, while the 3 franc value shows modern fencers in action, symbolizing the evolution of the sport. Both designs highlight Ghent’s historic architecture and Belgium’s enduring fencing tradition. A beautifully balanced thematic pair celebrating history, sport, and heritage.
