Sochi 2014 and the Publishing and Trading Centre “Marka” signed a licensing agreement Thursday which grants Marka the right to issue post and philatelic items with the Sochi 2014 emblem.
The first stamps will be issued January 2011 and the philatelic project will begin in four years.
The philatelic production will be divided into several areas to create a topical theme. They are “Sochi-capital of the XXII Olympic Winter Games”, “winter aspects of sport”, “Tourism on the Black Sea coast of Russia”, “Olympic sporting venues”, and XI Paralympic Winter Games”.
