Issued by Brazil in 1970 to commemorate LUBRAPEX-70, the joint philatelic exhibition between Portugal and Brazil, this striking three-stamp set celebrates both modern design and Brazil’s urban heritage. The 50 cts stamp, designed by E. Rodrigues, features a bold geometric motif symbolizing postal connection and progress. The 20 cts and 1 cruzeiro values depict scenic 19th- and 20th-century views of Rio de Janeiro, including the Glória Hill and Sugarloaf Mountain, emphasizing the city’s cultural and historical evolution. Printed by the Casa da Moeda do Brasil, the series beautifully blends Brazil’s artistic tradition with its philatelic pride.
