Oskar Andersson Cartoon on Swedish Stamp



This postcard shows the Swedish stamp issued on March 24, 1977 to commemorate the centenary of Oskar Andersson's birth. Oskar Andersson was an early Swedish cartoonist. This cartoon is called "Politeness." The large OA on the left is Oskar Andersson's signature.

I am participating in Sunday Stamps at Viridian's Postcard Blog

    It's a wonderful stamp, and makes me want to check out his cartoons.

    I have that cartoon on a stamp of different value. I did not know the cartoonist's name.

    Beautiful. I hadn't realised Sweden produced postcards with postage stamp designs. I must look out for them.

    I think it is "Politeness" because neither person is walking in the path in the snow that is already there.
