Philately NewsSri Lanka’s Philatelic Bureau lists a special cover for the Ceylon Moor Ladies’ Union dated 10 October 2026. The horizontal cover measures 190 × 115 mm, is printed in four process colours and is priced at 250 rupees.
The official artwork carries a large “90” anniversary emblem, the Union’s name and “Founded 1936”. It shows the Union’s premises among trees and bears a Colombo first-day cancellation dated 10.10.2026.
