Travel the World of Postage Stamps - Fighting Cocks - Blanco (Gallus gallus domesticus) - Cuba 1981 - Michel Cuba 2563 - my hobby.
Greetings friends!
Could people, once, when releasing a new series of postage stamps, have thought that this series of postage stamps would become a monument to their greed?
I doubt.
I think that for that time and that country, and we are talking about 1981 and the island of Cuba, greed was the norm.
Why am I talking about greed?
What, in other words, can be called the use of natural instincts of animals for bloody sweepstakes?
A series of postage stamps Fighting Cocks shows us fighting roosters, and this, a memory for centuries, about people who could not teach roosters to play chess, for a simple reason, people did not want to start losing to roosters in chess.
On another 7 ¢ - Cuban centavo postage stamp, we see a snow-white Blanco (Gallus gallus domesticus).

For my publications, I do not use stock photographs, it is fundamentally important for me to use photographs that I have made with my own hands for publication and I can name them - authorial work.
