When finally it seemed that
we had been able to offer one more plural image of which it is - or he
would have to be - the Spanish State, the people in charge of this issue
have fallen again to the absolute and ridiculous topic when dedicating
an issue to the tourism, without a doubt one of the motors of the
national economy. In case still they did not know it, the tourist image
of Spain is not resumed only in Andalucía,

On
the other hand, the label shows the well known image of Sevilla
seen from the other border of the Guadalquivir
river; the
Torre del Oro and, to the
bottom, the
Giralda. In first plane
it is recognizes the relief of the Andalusian horse - the diffusion of
which the World-wide Philatelic Exhibition España'2000 is
also dedicated - and, to the right, a "bailaora"
de flamenco ...
