Greetings friends!

Our journey around the world in time and space continues.

Today, we will turn the hand of the clock back and make all the sheets of tear-off calendars for the last 90 years, or, more precisely, for 91 years and 5 months, return to their place.

We will travel to the homeland of the Finnish bathhouse, Finland, and see a postage stamp from Series Coat of Arms 1917 - Saarinen Design, 1929 Issue, white Paper issued in 1930.

This postage stamp features Coat of Arms.

Usually, when a lion is depicted on the country's coat of arms, it speaks of an unyielding character, and courage and justice.

Pay attention, this lion is armed with a sword, but he is surrounded by flowers, which says that this is a peace-loving people who know how to enjoy life and he does not seek war, but is ready to repel the enemy's attack.

Indeed, only nine years later, after the release of this postage stamp, the Finnish people will have to prove that this coat of arms fully corresponds to the spirit of a warrior.

And so it was.

in 1939, when Soviet troops attacked Finland, the Finnish people fought back decisively.

Several snipers, adapted to combat operations in the harsh Finnish winter, were able to stop and defeat the Soviet waxes.

The symbol of the lion always requires confirmation of your intentions.

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.
