The Faroe Islands government officially took over the postal affairs of the islands on 1st April 1976 and named the new Faroese postal service "Postverk Føroya” with a white Ram’s horn on a blue background as the logo. The Faroe Islands postal service was restructured as a limited liability company on 1st January 2005. The name was changed to the "P/F Postverk Føroya” (i.e. Faroe Islands Postal Service Limited). The Faroe Islands Government is the sole shareholder of the company. The name was changed again in September 2009, this time
to "Posta Faroe Islands" or just “Posta”. At the same
time a new logo was introduced. The new Posta logo is
composed by two staggered arrows that are pointing in
opposite directions, a symbol of "Receive" and "Send".
The first arrow is sea blue color while the second arrow
is green, a symbol of the ocean and the islands. My FDC collection ends with the last cover (above)
issued with the Postverk
Føroya name and logo. |
