This 1960 Argentine airmail semi-postal stamp commemorates United Nations Day (24 October), marked by the overprint “Día de las Naciones Unidas.” The design titled “El Desembarcadero” depicts a rural landing scene with carts and figures, symbolizing cooperation and development. Issued as part of the Efimayo 1960 exhibition, it carries a dual denomination of 10.70 + 5.30 pesos, with the surcharge supporting charitable causes. Designed by Álvarez Boero, this stamp reflects Argentina’s participation in global unity themes during the mid-20th century. A fine example of thematic UN-related philately with both airmail and semi-postal significance.
