Ukraine. Red King, White Queen

In 2002 for the first time in the sovereign Ukraine history the Ukrainian grand master Ruslan Ponomarev became the world champion in chess among men according to the version of FIDE. With a postage issue to the general chorus of congratulations to the grand master from Gorlovka (Donetsk region) joined also the Ukrainian post.

Exactly ten years later is a new success of the Ukrainian chess school. 27-year-old Anna Ushenina from Kharkov became the fifteenth world champion in chess among women. In the ending of world chess championship in Khanty-Mansiysk (Russia) the Ukrainian woman won a victory over Antoaneta Stefanova from Bulgaria.

From the moment of finding of Ukraine independence Anna Ushenina became the first Ukrainian champion in chess among women. To it only once in 1950 a chess crown the native of the city of Lubny (Poltava region) Lyudmila Rudenko who became the second in the history of chess and the first world champion among the Soviet chess players possessed.

On the final game way Anna Ushenina beat Cory Deysi - the Peruvian, the ex-Ukrainian, Slovenia representative Anna Muzichuk, the Russians Natalia Pogonina and Nadezhda Kosintseva and also the Chinese woman Tszyuy Ventszyun.

With congratulations to the Chess Queen addressed the President of Ukraine. By the Cabinet of Ministers resolution to the champion will write out a monetary award. As the Ukrainian post this time it stores sacral silence. The "Ukrposhta's" general director probably as female jealousy ignored the success of more eminent compatriot.

Thanks to the enthusiasts of the Kiev club, the achievement of the Ukrainian chess player would remain forever lost for philately.  Thanks to opportunities of the “Photo stamp” project the postage issue is made in 5 various miniatures with the image of the Chess Queen - "the Komsomol member, sportswomen and simply beauties".

The plots are printed on five different sheets of "Photo stamp": 2007 "Kiev Pechersk Lavra", "We wish good luck", "Flowers", 2008 "Congratulation" and 2010 "Petrikovsk painting".

All above-mentioned sheets are from the second type edition - with protection by ultra-violet paint drawing of six-place number on label or sheet margin.


Anna Ushenina didn't wait for favor by nature and realized the talent in real sports result - the Champion's title. The Kiev club collectors also don't expect favor from the inert "Ukrposhta’s" officials. Thanks to creative thinking and resource "Photo stamp" they realize own ideas and embody them in philatelic production, which marks achievements of sportsmen-Olympians, football players, chess players making glory and pride of the new Ukraine.

Ukraine. The "Colombia" Passenger

On November 21, 2012 on the official website of the State Space Agency of Ukraine there was a message:  "On November 19, 2012 in Kiev, in the State space agency of Ukraine opened the exhibition devoted to the 15th anniversary of flight in space of the first astronaut of Ukraine of Leonid Konstantinovich Kadenyuk onboard the American Colombia spaceship. Especially for the 15 anniversary of Leonid Konstantinovich Kadenyuk flight the entreprise "Ukrpochta's" was issued and canceled a memorable stamp".

According to the written petition of Space agency to "Ukrposhta's" guide our dear scientists very much would like to print memorable stamp to anniversary of flight of the first astronaut of Independent Ukraine and to make a postage cancel for carrying out special cancelation.  The image for this stamp was attached.  To refuse a request of so serious and significant organization it was represented inadmissible.

Thanks to "printing development in the West" and to technologies of "Photo stamp" any whim of dear customer is executed in short terms. As for a special cancel, the "Ukrposhta" was powerless there. To make a cancel within one day theoretically probably, but to be fooled by this problem nobody wanted. However, the Agency didn't insist on a cancel. The exhibition organizers bought some tens pure envelopes, stuck on them the ordered stamps and extinguished them own "cancel" - the office press "For documents". Such souvenirs for guests and participants of an exhibition were prepared by meeting organizers.

Spoiled there was practically all issue edition ordered by Agency in "Ukrposhta".  However, some copies of sheets of "unique space stamp" were rescued from barbarous intervention of "space Papuans".
E-shop "Ukrafil" is the only owner of the special postage issue devoted to anniversary of flight of the Ukrainian astronaut as a part of the international crew onboard the American spaceship.
