EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Soviet stamp from 1958, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Tunguska event. The stamp features an exquisite illustration depicting Leonid Kulik, a renowned Russian mineralogist and researcher of the Tunguska event, on the right side. On the left side, we see a vivid depiction of the Tunguska event fireball that occurred on June 30th, 1908 in Siberia, Russia. The Tunguska event remains shrouded in mystery as it was an enormous explosion believed to have been caused by a meteorite or comet exploding above Earth's surface. The stamp bears Cyrillic text including Kulik's initials, surname, birth and death years along with his profession. It also includes references to USSR (CCCP), indicating its Soviet origin. With meticulous attention to detail and artistic finesse, this stamp captures both scientific and historical significance.
