Self-adhesive stamp with a motif drawn from Denmark’s marvellous camping life.

The stamps in the ‘Camping Life’ series in the values DKK 6.00 and DKK 8.00 are the result of a competition among students at the Danish Design School. Thirty-five students each submitted two stamp designs. A unanimous jury chose Marie Sølyst’s designs as the winners, because they are simultaneously “retro” and modern, and possess a gentle humour that pleases the viewer.
