An exceptional and investment-grade historical collection of vintage postage stamps from the Western Ukrainian People's Republic (ZUNR / WUPR), representing the rare and highly sought-after 1919 "Vienna Unissued" definitive series.
This premium philatelic layout is exceptionally rare, being composed entirely of larger structural formats that showcase five authentic quarter blocks (blocks of 4 stamps), including the high-value 1-Korona and 10-Korona multi-color issues. The masterful, fine-line engravings prominently display the historic state emblem—the West Ukrainian/Galician Lion on a shield surrounded by traditional ornamental frames. All stamps are in their classic imperforate (unperforated) variants, preserved in premium unused Mint Hinged (MH) condition with full original wartime paper character and no cancellation marks.
Features:
- Set of 20 vintage stamps (composed exclusively of 5 pristine quarter blocks of 4)
- Authentic 1919 Western Ukrainian People's Republic (ZUNR / ZOUНР) Vienna production
- Issued during the post-WWI independence struggle and border transitions of Western Ukraine
- Features iconic heraldry: Galician Coat of Arms (Galician Lion) and traditional typography
- Includes premium large-format high-value 1-Korona and 10-Korona (two-color) blocks
- Classic imperforate (unperforated) edges with wide margin lines
- Mint Hinged (MH) condition (unused, clean mint condition without postmarks)
The set includes premium blocks of the following denominations from the series:
- 10, 20, 50 Sotykiv (сотиків), as well as 1 Korona (корона) and 10 Koron (корон).
A fascinating collectible for:
