Notes

Beijing 2022 – stamps with the Olympic and Paralympic emblems, including the gold versions. Designed by artist Lin Cunzhen, the emblems of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games 2022 combine traditional and modern elements of Chinese culture, as well as features embodying the passion and vitality of winter sports. Inspired by the Chinese character for winter, the emblem resembles a skater and a skier, and evokes the host country’s mountains, Olympic venues, ski slopes and skating rinks. Internal transfer
