Sunday Stamps - Children: USA, Great Britain

 In 2001 a series of 4 stamps were issued for the New Millennium, Rights of The Child in the form of face paintings.

If you stretch 'Youth' to mean children then the centenary of the ELKS organisation will fit the theme.

Sunday Stamps II A-Z 'Y' - USA, Rwanda, Saudi Arabia

Two stamps with the emphasis on youth and one just because I only have a few from there.

In date of issue order - 

USA - 11 August 1948
I guess I could have used the next stamp under 'J' - 

Rwanda- 31 May 1966 - Youth and Football
1966 was the year in which England won the world cup.

Saudi Arabia  switches the theme from youth - 

Saudi Arabia - 25 May 1976 - Yuba Mosque
Now I will have to start the search for a 'Z' related stamp to end this second round of A-Z on Sunday-Stamps-y.
