Another Czech stamp from archive:

This one commemorates the 1964 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan.  Czechoslovakia came away from the ‘64 Olympics with a total of 14 medals; 5 gold, 6 silver, and 3 bronze. The men’s volleyball team received a silver medal.  But it is not the Czechoslovakian men’s team on the stamp.  This stamp depicts a women’s volleyball team, because Olympic women’s volleyball first debuted in 1964.

This particular stamp is interesting because while the strokes in the illustration look very painterly, when you get up close you can really see all the little cross hatching done in the engraving which is a trait these Czech stamps share.

Pretty much all of the other stamps I scanned from around this timeframe tend to have been created through offset lithography, which became very dominant in printing from the 1950’s onward.
