This pair of stamps from San Marino, issued in 1961, vividly illustrates 16th-century hunting practices. The L.4 blue-toned stamp depicts hunters in a boat using a crossbow for aquatic game (Caccia agli acquatici con balestra). The L.3 red-toned stamp features a dramatic boar hunt (Caccia al cinghiale) with a spear-wielding hunter and hounds in action. Designed by C. Mancioli and printed in Rome, these stamps are part of a thematic series celebrating historical hunting methods. A striking addition for thematic and historical philately collectors.
