This commemorative stamp was issued by Austria in 1985 to celebrate the Nordic Ski World Championships held in Seefeld, Tirol (17–27 January 1985). The design features two Nordic skiers in motion—one performing ski jumping and the other cross-country skiing—symbolizing the major disciplines of Nordic skiing. The snowy alpine background reflects the Tyrolean mountain landscape where the championship took place. Designed by V. Wurnitsch, the stamp highlights Austria’s strong winter sports tradition and Seefeld’s status as a world-class Nordic skiing venue. It was issued in the 4 Schilling denomination for standard postal use.
