I understand hat a number of countries will issue stamps relevant for these COVID times. However I have been disappointed to find that we do not really have many stamps that address front line workers at all.
the Salvation Army provides support to many and their centenary was celebrated as long ago as 1965.
 |
| Great Britain - 9 August 1965 |
A set of stamps was issued for the police, 150 years after it was formed.
 |
| Great Britain - 28 September 1979 |
When it comes to nurses I could only find a District Nurse - in a set commemorating the centenary of the first telephone call.
 |
| Great Britain - 10 March 1976 |
For a stamp depicting a nurse I had to visit Iceland -
 |
| Iceland - 19 June 1970 |
and that was for the 50th anniversary of the Icelandic Nurses Association.
To see front line workers found by others just visit the links at Sunday Stamps.
