| Abstract: | The "Madonna and Saints" Christmas 1976 10c + 2c stamp has been voted internationally as the most beautiful stamp issued by the Malta Post Office during 1976. This was announced on Monday, 2nd May, 1977, by the Philatelic Society of Malta during its monthly meeting, held at the Catholic Institute, Floriana, when the votes in the International "Vote A Stamp" Contest were opened and registered. The winning stamp attained 113 votes out of a total of 311 valid votes, an outright winner with 36%. Runner-up was the 5c + 1c stamp of the same Christmas issue, showing the "Madonna and Child", with just over 10.6% of the votes. [excerpt] |
