Isle of Man Post “One Giant Leap" on Lunar Exploration and Space Missions

ISLE OF MAN POST  presented a set of eight stamps titled “One Giant Leap, Exploring the Moon and Space.” This issue continued the story of NASA human spaceflight, which commenced with "One Small Step" issued in April 2019. This First Day Cover issue featured cancellations with a special space themed postmark.

George Abbey, who worked with NASA during the Apollo missions and was director of the Johnson Space Center during the NASA Shuttle - Mir Program, wrote the text for this second set of stamps marking over 50 Years of Lunar Exploration and mankind’s further exploration of space, symbolically themed around that ‘One Small Step’ Neil Armstrong took on the surface of the Moon in 1969 and the ‘Giant Leap’ forward for humanity.
