Isle of Man: Douglas

I just returned from my city trip to Vienna and during my trip arrived many postcards. One of the cards is my first card from the Isle of Man. 

The Isle of Man is located in the Irish Sea. The Isle Of Man is neither a part of the European Union nor of the United Kingdom, but a British Crown Dependency. The Isle of Man is home to the oldest continuous parliamentary body in the world, the Tynwald. The Isle of Man issues it's own stamps since 1973.

The card shows an old travel poster of Douglas. Douglas is the the capital of the Isle of Man.


With a nice stamp:
EUROPA (from set of eight) (issued 06-01-2014)


Thank You very much Elliot!
