stamps from a large series (17) 1961 "Tourism Publicity"
It is a beautiful series , with lots of great designs and beautifully engraved.. Unfortunately I cannot get any data from the Designers and Engravers (I have a National catalog, very good, but it lack's this kind of info...) [if any viewer of this post have some catalog with this data , please leave a comment...]

These are stamps from one of the most famous definitive series of Greece... in most part of the European countries this series appeared in the 40's and 50's... the stamps are divided in two groups , because there are 3 different issues of this series : in 1972, 1973 and 1974..
The first series has only 8 stamps , the second 17 and the third 15 .. All the stamps have a multiple Crown Wmk and the designs are very beautiful.
[Left Group] stamps from the series (8) 1972 "Greek costumes (1st Series)"
SG(1199,1200,1201,1202,1203,1204) Sc(1040,1041,1042,1043,1044,1045)
[Right Group] from the series (17) 1973 "Greek costumes (2nd Series)"
