West-Germany commemorating the 400th birth-anniversary of Friedrich Spee von Langenfeld.Issued Feb.14th,1991.
He was the author of "Cautio Criminalis".The title page is shown on the left of the stamp. At first published anonymous in 1631 the "Cautio Criminalis" questioned the legality of the witch-prosecution. In a later version he sharply condemned the witch-hunt as illegal and un-christian. His book convinced Queen Christina of Sweden to stop witch-hunts.Most other countries in Europe followed soon after.

A series of lithographed and engraved super-size souvenir sheets were issued in Korea around the turn of the century which commemorated various milestones and also a series of sheets commemorating the registration of various Korean cultural treasures as part of the world heritage. The below sheet is one of these. Issued in 2005, it depicts two books, the first book printed with movable type in 1377, called the Jikjisimcheyojeol (the pink and tan stamp) and the Diaries of the Joseon Dynasty, called the Seongjeongwon. Many of these sheets are beautifully designed and the colors and engraving are striking. Scott no. 2213 and 2213a and 2213b  |

I'm posting this Brazilian stamp in this thread because of the book it features, but the other pictorials lean towards a legal theme, following the label of "National Day of Black Awareness" (if my little knowledge of Portuguese doesn't betray me):  |
