A stamp issued by the Republic of Iraq in memory of the twentieth revolution against the British occupation. It depicts a farmer carrying a traditional Iraqi weapon (the Mukawar) against the English cannon, which appears burning in the background. And the character expresses an Iraqi song in the days of the revolution that says: “Bricks are better if Macquarie?”.
