This 1988 Swiss commemorative stamp marks the 600th anniversary of the Battle of Näfels (1388), an important victory of the Glarus Confederates over Habsburg forces. The design by Hanspeter Paoli combines medieval manuscript script with a stylized banner depicting a saintly figure, symbolizing the region’s historical and spiritual identity. Printed by Courvoisier, the stamp features clean, modern typography paired with a vivid red medieval banner, creating a striking visual contrast. A desirable thematic item for collectors of Swiss history, medieval heritage, and manuscript-themed issues.
