EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a collection of Irish Free State stamps issued in December 1922, marking the official launch of the new Irish State. The central stamp in the image features the first definitive 2d stamp of the Irish Free State. The design is striking, with a map of Ireland prominently displayed, symbolizing the newly independent nation. Notably absent from the map is the north/south divide, reflecting the political climate of the time. Flanking the central stamp are two other designs, showcasing medium and high value denominations. The intricate details of the stamps, including the delicate lines of the map and the meticulous engraving of the text, are a testament to the craftsmanship of the time. The Irish Free State, established on December 6, 1922, following the Anglo-Irish Treaty, represented a significant moment in Irish history. These stamps, with their bold and symbolic designs, serve as a visual reminder of this pivotal period in Irish politics. The absence of the north/south divide on the map reflects the complexities and challenges of the new state's formation and the ongoing tensions that would continue to shape Irish history in the decades to come. These stamps, with their historical significance and beautiful design, continue to be a source of fascination for collectors and historians alike. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to a pivotal moment in Irish history.
