Description: This horizontal commemorative postage stamp from Poland features a stylized, minimalist illustration of a single cross-country skier leaning forward in a powerful stride. Rendered in a monochrome dark blue-gray silhouette, the athlete is shown pushing off with ski poles that extend parallel across the snowy background. A small red rectangular flag acts as a course marker on the lower right. In the upper left corner, the face value is designated as "60 GR", while the upper right corner features the official red and black International Ski Federation (FIS) emblem. The capitalized inscription "NARCIARSKIE MISTRZOSTWA ŚWIATA-1962" runs cleanly along the top margin, and the country name "POLSKA" maps across the bottom in widely letter-spaced, elegant black block text. A large, black circular town postmark from "SZCZECIN" anchors the left corner, marking its practical postal service history.
