bookmark on a stamp

20/8/2021

A new obsession!  Looking for world postage stamps that have a bookmark on them, any kind, paper, ribbon, cloth, leather, etc.

Here are some that I have discovered thus far.  The first stamp shown from Algeria, was issued for
 the International Year of the Book (IYOB) in 1972. You can see the logo of IYOB on the bookmark.  The other stamps shown here were issued to commemorate various events or observances, most typically associated with books and reading.
