Issued by the Republic of Austria in 1986, this beautifully illustrated set honors the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek (Austrian National Library) and its diverse cultural collections. The 1.50 Schilling stamp depicts the Theater Collection with medieval theatrical figures; the 2.20 Schilling stamp highlights the Picture Archive and Portrait Collection showing the library’s historic building; and the 3 Schilling value features the Manuscript Collection with a medieval nautical scene. Each design, created by Austrian artists A. Fischer, A. Neffe, and R. Toth under A. Pilch’s engraving, captures the artistic richness preserved within Austria’s foremost cultural institution.
