To commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the first manned landing on the Moon and the 25th Anniversary of Swedish Technology on the Moon, this handsome stamp features an Apollo 11 astronaut operating the Swedish-made Hasselblad™ camera used on that historic mission.  This special issue is the first-ever Swedish postage stamp designed by non-Swedes.  Talented American artists Paul and Chris Calle – a father and son known for their remarkable artwork for NASA – have created another spectacular portrayal of the Apollo 11 astronauts for this special stamp.
