1984 Olympic Games Los Angeles
Released to coincide with the Olympic Games in Los Angeles, these stamps depict the phases of a sporting competition — the time before, during, and after an event. The pre-start phase (blue) shows the period of intense concentration and extreme mental and nervous pressure, the during phase captures the intensity of the drive to do better than ever before (orange) and the post-event phase is dominated by the feelings of elation, exhilaration, and release at having competed and excelled.
These stamps can be used within Australia for domestic and international postage to brighten up your cards, letters, and parcels.
