[Commemorative stamps for the International Year of the Handicapped --classified according to rehabilitative aspects].

On the occasion of the International Year of Disabled Persons, postage stamps have been issued by almost all countries in the world, individual ones, arranged in series or as commemorative sheets. Hardly an aspect of rehabilitation having been omitted, a wide range of stamps is available. This article, therefore, gives an overview of the 73 stamps before the author, organizing them into major rehabilitational categories. Many countries have used the emblem of the Year, depicting a disabled and a non-disabled person joining hands in mutual support, surrounded by the United Nations laurels. Other frequent themes are a country's most pressing rehabilitation problems, tasks ahead, or integration-related subjects. Noteworthy is the frequency of symbols representing certain disabilities, such as wheelchairs, crutches, eye/white cane, or ear/hearing aid, being used by countries around the world to advocate understanding and helpfulness towards disabled persons. Commemorative medals issued for the International Year are also mentioned.
