Maserati also thinks of collectors
The stamp dedicated to the Trident presents itself as a refined miniature work of art. The vignette, designed by the Maserati Style Center and optimized by the Philatelic Center of the Security Printing and Traditional Production Office of the State Printing Works and Mint, features the current Maserati symbol in the foreground, with a setting that recalls the first Tridents of 1926 through a pattern in the background, evoking the evolution of the logo over one hundred years. To embellish the composition, a tricolor band and the legend “CENTENARIO”. For collectors and enthusiasts, a dedicated philatelic folder is available, with a single stamp and a block of four, the “First day of issue” envelope with its cancellation and a brochure that traces the history of the Trident.
