The First All-Russian Agricultural and Handicraft Exhibition was held in Moscow in 1923. It was opened on 19 August. This very day, a special commemorative series of postage stamps dedicated to the exhibition opening was released. These were the first stamps of the Soviet Union.[1]
The stamps have the inscription in Russian: "CCCP" ("USSR") or "Почта CCCP" (Post of the USSR), the value, and the words in Russian: "Всероссийская сельско-хоз. и кустарно-пром. выставка" (All-Russian Agricultural and Handicraft Exhibition). They were produced by lithographic printing in two versions, imperforate and perforated.[2]
