Spanish stamps

As I need to get some letters and cards away in the next few days, today's Blip is a set of the latest Spanish 90 cent stamps.... for use within Europe for a standard letter. Earlier stamps used 'A' or 'B' to denote destination, rather than the price. No image of the King has been used since the abdication of King Juan Carlos.

These new stamps show traditional wooden toys. The toy industry was once a very important Spanish industry, with exports across the world....perhaps that was before we started importing on a large scale from China and the East.
