Portugal on stamps

The second of three issues showing the eight tourism regions of Portugal at the time is dedicated to the Azores.

The set was designed by José Cândido, lithographed by the Mint on enamelled paper sheets of 5×10 stamps with perforation 12×11½ and a phosphor band (except on the 30$00 stamp), and circulated from 17 September 1980 to 31 August 1989.
