Portugal on stamps

UCCLA (União das Cidades Capitais Luso-Afro-Américo-Asiáticas) is a non-governmental organization at municipal level, bringing  together Portuguese-speaking cities from around the world. UCCLA is the brainchild of Nuno Krus Abecasis and was founded in June 1985, when he was mayor of Lisbon.

The stamp was designed by Maluda, lithographed by the Mint on enamelled paper sheets of 5×10 stamps with perforation 12×12½, and circulated from 30 July 1993 to 31 March 1999.
