| A postmarked Sri Lankan postage stamp featuring a portrait of a smiling gentleman wearing glasses, set against a light blue and white background. The denomination of .15 is prominently displayed in red, and the lower band features the country name in multiple scripts (Sinhala, Tamil, and English: SRI LANKA) on a vivid blue field. Issued at 15 Cents, this philatelic item, likely from the late 20th century, pays tribute to a notable public or cultural figure of the nation, formerly known as Ceylon, showcasing Sri Lankan political and linguistic diversity. |
