This commemorative stamp was issued by the Dominican Republic in 1949 to mark the 75th Anniversary of the Universal Postal Union (UPU), founded in 1874. The design features a dove with outstretched wings symbolizing peace and international postal unity, perched above a globe that highlights the Americas. The banner reads “1874 U.P.U. 1949”, while the green frame bears the inscription “75° Aniversario” on both sides. With a face value of 2 centavos, this issue represents the Dominican Republic’s participation in a worldwide philatelic celebration of the UPU’s role in unifying global postal systems. A classic mid-20th-century commemorative, it is a sought-after piece for collectors of UPU issues, Dominican Republic philately, and thematic stamps featuring peace and postal history.
