Description: This 8.50-drachma stamp was produced by the Hellenic Post (ELTA) as part of a long-running definitive series celebrating regional folk garments. The central illustration depicts a woman in a profile stance wearing the complex, multi-layered traditional dress of the Corinth region, characterized by heavily embroidered geometric patterns, a striped overcoat, a white headscarf, and carrying a large terracotta jug. The top-left corner marks the production year "1973," balanced on the top-right by the regional designation "KORINTHOS" written in Greek script. The lower margin grounds the composition with the bilingual state name "ΕΛΛΑΣ - HELLAS" positioned to the left of the numeric face value "ΔΡ. 8.50".
