What is depicted on the series of stamps "To 20 years of the death of R. Shukhevych"

The series of stamps issued for the 10th anniversary of R. Shukhevych's death in 1970 has a special significance in Ukrainian history. The stamps of this series depict Roman Shukhevych, framed by a lime wreath. This type of visualization symbolizes the purity and greatness of a person who devoted his life to the struggle for the independence of Ukraine.

At the bottom of the stamp is the inscription "Underground Post of Ukraine". This inscription emphasizes the fact that Roman Shukhevych was recognized as the leader of the underground movement in Ukraine, which opposed the occupation regime. He became a symbol of the struggle for independence and dignity of the Ukrainian people.

The years 1950-1960 are indicated above the title "Underground Mail of Ukraine", indicating the period during which 10 years have passed since the death of R. Shukhevych.
