Royal Joh. Enschedé published new production details on 21 August 2026 for Finland’s Pride stamp, which Posti originally issued on 6 May. The technical account identifies how the colourful illustration was transferred to self-adhesive stamp paper and supplies specifications that were not central to the earlier public description of the design.

Finnish illustrator Eero Lampinen created the artwork, showing a diverse group of people marching together as their clothing and forms merge into rainbow colours. The design draws on Lampinen’s psychedelic style and references both the countercultures of the 1960s and the early Pride marches of the 1970s. Its theme encompasses diversity, equality and human rights.

The printer states that the stamp measures 47 by 29 millimetres and was supplied in sheets of ten. It used a 5/4 offset process on self-adhesive stamp paper, with specialised vivid ink overlays intended to preserve the strength of the original palette and its smaller details. This information is particularly useful when distinguishing normal production characteristics from colour shifts caused by scanning, fading or reproduction.

For modern specialists, printer disclosures can clarify catalogue attributes that are sometimes absent from a postal operator’s initial promotional material. The combination of sheet size, dimensions, adhesive format and offset configuration gives collectors a firmer basis for describing mint sheets, singles and printing-related varieties. It also offers reference information for assessing digital images where intense colours may be changed by camera processing.

The article is a later technical analysis of an issue released in May, not a newly issued stamp. It adds production context rather than changing the formal issue date. No print quantity or perforation measurement is stated in the printer’s account, and those details should not be inferred from the supplied format information.
