This 1990 Bolivian postage stamp commemorates the 200th anniversary of the birth of José Eustaquio Méndez, a national hero of Bolivia's fight for independence. The artwork features the "Casa de Moto Méndez," his preserved birthplace, located in the Tarija region. Issued by Correos de Bolivia with a denomination of 300 Bolivianos, the stamp honors Méndez’s contributions to the guerrilla resistance against Spanish colonial rule. Designed by Jorge Campos R., it is a fine example of historical and architectural philately.
