1984. World Championship in pool. Unless seen through a mirror, the model for this "portrait of a hand" must have been left handed. Rumours have it that Slania has used his own hand as a model, but it has been impossible to verify this.
1984. Bicentenary for establishment of the public archives for naval maps.
1984. 300th anniversary of pilotage service.
1986. 400th anniversary of Sorø College.

1985. 300th anniversary of the Huguenot Society in Denmark. SG 792.
1985. Two
stamps commemorating the 900th
anniversary of St. Canute's Votive Letter to the Cathedral in Lund
(Sweden). Joint issue with Sweden. The similar
Swedish stamps can be seen on Sweden,
page 14.
There
are three historical errors on these stamps:
1) The Falcon Seal held by the person on horseback (both stamps), is William the Conqueror's seal, and not King Canute's.
2) The Cathedral of Lund, shown on the left stamp, did
not have two towers at that time, but only one.
3) The castle on the right stamp "Kärnan" in
Helsingborg (Sweden) was only built 300 years after King Canute's death!
1985. 400th anniversary of the building of Kronborg Castle (Hamlet's Castle) in Elsinore (Zeeland).

1986. Hafnia
sheet No. III for the stamp exhibition HAFNIA '87.
The stamps show various postal uniforms. The stamps contained in
the sheet are all valid for postage, but were not sold individually.
1987. Hafnia
sheet No. IV for the stamp exhibition HAFNIA '87.
The stamp shows the Central Post
Office in Copenhagen, anno 1912. This stamp has been sold
separately, and is well known postally used. The stamp is a
"reprint" of an early Danish issue in 1912, again reprinted
1915, of the same surface value as the original stamps. The
Central Post Office building is engraved by Czeslaw Slania on the
present Hafnia-issue.
1987. I like this souvenir card from Hafnia '87 in Copenhagen. The backside of the card shows Slania's signature written in Chinese (by himself !), and dated 23rd October 87. If you study the reverse (grey) side of the card well, you can see a mirrored print of his signature in the lower left corner of the printed stamp.
