A commemorative stamp marking 125 years since the birth of Francisco “Paco” Espínola was presented at the Museo Departamental de San José. San José Ahora’s 14 October report places the ceremony on the preceding Tuesday, 13 October 2026. Correo Uruguayo subsequently published its own account on 19 October.

The event included a discussion of the writer’s work. Postal president Gabriel Bonfrisco, acting departmental head Ana Quevedo and the writer’s daughter Mercedes Espínola attended. The postal account describes the issue as a tribute to the writer’s contribution to Uruguay’s cultural memory.
