News-Moomin Booklet Re-released
Moomin's Booklet Re-released
 
The Finnish Postal authorites have re-released the Moomin stamp
booklet due to public demand.
 
The Moomin booklet issued in March, had a print run of 600,000 but
due to the great demand for a piece of Finnish folk history. In light of the
upcoming tourist season, 400,000 more of these booklets have been
produced. That brings the total print run of a single booklet to 1 million
copies. The Moomins tales have been converted in to a popular TV series,
here in the UK.
