Key Details of the 2010 Philippines Spain Ships Stamp

• Year of Issue: 2010
• Theme: Commemorating the historical ties between the Philippines and Spain, specifically the Manila Galleon (or Galeón de Manila). This often relates to the annual “Dia del Galeón” celebrations.
• Design: Stamps in this theme typically depict:
  • An image of a Spanish Galleon (a large, multi-decked sailing ship).
  • A map or a symbolic representation of the Manila-Acapulco Trade Route (connecting Asia, through the Philippines, to the Americas, and eventually to Europe).
• Format: These issues often include a set of regular stamps and a corresponding Souvenir Sheet (Miniature Sheet), which features a larger, more detailed design.

Catalogue Reference (Approximate):

• Stamps from the 2010 annual set related to this theme can typically be found within the Scott Catalogue listings for the Philippines from numbers Scott 3302 onward for that year’s general issues. A specific “Galleon Day” or “Spanish Ship” souvenir sheet would have a separate listing, usually a letter designation like Scott 3307a (example only, the exact number needs confirmation with a catalogue).
