Postage stamps might be threatening to become quaint relics from the past, but for over a century and a half they were central to our imagination of long-distance communication. This talk will delve into the fascinating history of postal services in India and explore the world of postage stamps in independent India.
Join Vikas Kumar as he takes us through the history and composition of stamps in India— from walking through MAP’s exhibition Hello & Goodbye: Postcards from the Early 20th Century, to designing stamps of your own.
This event is fully booked.
