Peacekeeping force in Cyprus

UNFICYP was established by the Security Council on 4 March 1964. One year later the United Nations issued a stamp: Cyprus on a field of orange, held in an olive wreath.

ArtCraft printed a photograph of a patrol near Limassol — an all-terrain vehicle, a United Nations flag. The cover is cancelled first day in New York. The photograph on this page is the cover only.
