Description

A spectacular piece for astro-philately enthusiasts! This item belongs to the highly collectible series issued by the Republic of Chad to celebrate the achievements of the Soviet space program. The artwork beautifully captures an automatic lunar probe during its flight near the Moon's surface, with planet Earth visible in the deep background. Keeping the four stamps together in a single strip makes this item stand out far more than individual singles.

Desirable Format: Uncut vertical multiple strips are far less common and much more valued by specialized collectors.
Iconic Space Theme: The 60s and 70s Space Race remains a flagship topic in worldwide philately.
Premium Presentation: Perfectly preserved item with neat, aesthetically striking central cancellations.
