We’re celebrating 175 years of Swiss Post with two anniversary stamps. To create the stamps, we invited students from the Bachelor’s degree in Graphic Design at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts to enter a design competition. Find out more about how the stamps were created and about the travelling exhibition in Swiss Post branches.
The three-tone post horn is a piece of Switzerland and shapes the Swiss Post brand. In 1924, the first Postbus drivers played the horn. This year’s 100th anniversary stirs emotions: various campaigns are planned as part of “100 years of Du-Da-Do”.
