In the period from 1953-1960, four issues of stamps, dedicated to the International Women’s Day (8 March) were issued in North Korea (this day is mainly celebrated in the territory of the former USSR, and some countries of Asia and Africa). Since 2019 this holiday has been a regional holiday in Berlin, Germany.
Three of these issues are rare and belong to the “classic” DPRK stamps that are difficult to find. These stamps are very interesting and attractive to collectors of the period of North Korean philately from 1946-1957. This article lists the original artworks for these stamps along with images of the stamps. The designs of North Korean stamps are similar to the designs of the USSR stamps for this Women’s Day holiday for this period of stamps from 1947 and 1960 are shown in this article.
