This year continues
with the series dedicated to carriages, an interesting
subject not presently covered in Spanish philately.
|
The third
issue of this series is dedicated to the Milord,
an elegant vehicle conceived for short journeys and can still
be seen today in some Spanish cities like Sevilla, where
it is used mainly for tourists sightseeing trips.
It's a four wheel carriage, pulled by one or two horses, with
forward facing seats for the passengers and usually has one hood
that can be folded. The derrick or seat for the driver is at a
higher level.
