"There are annual Christmas and Europa issues"

Europa leads to a disambiguation page that I was in the process of dealing with the links to, but I don't understand enough here to know which Europa to disambiguate this to. The mythical one? Or is "Europe" what's meant? --Bth 09:34, 1 Mar 2004 (UTC)

"Europa" stamps have been issued annually since the late 1950s by member states of the Conference of European Posts and Telecommunications authorities (CEPT) initially to a common design in all countries, but for about the last 20 years to a common theme. With the split of posts and telecoms providers in most countries CEPT no longer exists, but the postal authorities continue the tradition. Stamps will have "Europa" written on them somewhere in small print. -- Arwel 10:44, 1 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Arwel's response would make a nice little stub for the missing Europa postage stamps article... Stan 13:58, 1 Mar 2004 (UTC)
