First Look At New Royal Post Stamps

New Masovia's Facebook page gave the Principality a sneak peek at our very first stamps as they arrived from the printer today.  

The stamps feature the coat of arms of New Masovia and bear a face value of 1 Złoty.  The stamps are printed in full color on dry-gummed paper in sheets of 36.  The top of the sheet bears the new Royal Post emblem, and the bottom of the sheet is inscribed with a code number for the stamp design and issue, and a message in Polish, "UŻYJ KODU POCZTOWEGO,"  which translates to, "Use Postal Code".  

The official date of issue for the new stamps is yet to be announced.  

Crown Establishes New Museum by Proclamation

Prince David has signed an official proclamation which establishes a new Micronational Museum of Natural History, the first of what's expected to be in a series of museums that will be small in size but big on arts and sciences.

Marine fossils, to be among the first pieces exhibited.

Earlier this month, the official social media accounts for the Principality had posted that a new Natural History Museum was "coming soon", though the nature of the museum had not been fully revealed.  The proclamation states that the micromuseum will be virtual in nature, so that citizens near and far may enjoy the exhibits.

The Crown is estimated to hold hundreds of artifacts, including fossils, rocks, minerals, dried pressed plants, and wildflower photographs.  Most of these are expected to be transferred to the Micromuseum's collections, where they will be stored and curated into online exhibitions for the public.
