Finland: Moomin

Another fine Moomin postcard from Finland! The Moomins are the central characters in a series of books and a comic strip by Swedish-speaking Finnish illustrator and writer Tove Jansson, originally published in Swedish by Schildts in Finland. They are a family of white, roundish fairy tale characters with large snouts that make them resemble hippopotamuses.

This beautiful stamp is Winter Greetings - Snowman, issued on 20.01.2014.


Thank You Eeva!
