As mentioned in my previous post, Spain issued two wooden stamps in 2020.
The stamp issued by Correos, dedicated to the elm tree, is printed on wood paper in the form of a cut trunk where its rings can be seen, which not only give information as to the age of the tree, but also details about the kind of life it has led.

The stamp mentions Cabeza de Buey, which means Ox head, and is also a muncipiality in Badajoz, Extremaduro in Spain. This small city is known for its 100 year old elm trees.
Similar to the odd stamp, a cancellation postmark was issued for the first day of issue.
