Stamp Comics #5

# Stamp Comics #5 The issue features a story about the construction of the Culebra Cut in Panama, where in 1904 massive steam shovels began excavating millions of tons of earth to create a canal passage. The project faced a major obstacle when the canal cut directly through a mountain, causing multiple dangerous slides that threatened the workers and the operation itself, though the crew persevered despite these hazards. The issue also includes an educational feature on stamp collecting clubs, discussing how to organize meetings, trading sessions, exhibitions, and membership drives to promote the hobby. Additionally, there is a story about brave Swiss mountain guides who rescue victims trapped on the dangerous Eigerwand alpine peak in 1931, risking their own lives to save climbers caught in an avalanche.
