| On March 11th, the Czech Ministry of Transportation
and Communications issued two post cards and an envelope commemorating
PRAGA 98.
Two cards were denominated at
4 Kc and printed in multicolored offset. The 4.60 envelope
was printed by recess print from flat plates. All three
were printed at the Post Printing House in Prague.
Karl Dvorak
based his graphic design on a gravure by Johan Georg Mansfeld
(1764-1817). Jiri Bouda drew the Postal Museum on one of
the 4 KC cards and the Trade Fair Palace on the other. Karl
Dvorak did the typographic design for both cards. Karl Dvorak
also did the art work for and designed the envelope.
