Human Rights Day Airmail Issue - 1 rupee
This airmail stamp ("بريد جوي") was issued by Sharjah & Dependencies (الشارقة وملكحقاتها) to commemorate Human Rights Day, printed via fine photogravure by the renowned British security printing house Harrison and Sons Ltd. London. The cartographic vignette displays a stylized planar projection of the world map radiating outward from a central, glowing white flame a global symbol of liberty, enlightenment, and fundamental human freedoms. On the map, a tiny flagpole reading "SHARJAH" pinpoints the emirate’s geographic coordinate on the Arabian Peninsula, visually asserting its position within the international community. The vertical side panels contain bilingual inscriptions identifying the issue's theme, "HUMAN RIGHTS DAY / يوم حقوق الإنسان", and the regional collective designation "(TRUCIAL STATES) / الإمارات المتصالحة". This mid-value airmail issue effectively paired an advocacy message for universal liberties with Sharjah’s expanding civil administration and global postal routing.
