This striking French commemorative stamp was issued in 1968 to celebrate the Xth Winter Olympic Games held in Grenoble, France. The design features the official emblem of the Games — a stylized snowflake surrounded by three red medallions, representing the Alpine flowers and the spirit of winter sports. Below, the iconic Olympic rings symbolize unity and the international character of the event.

Printed in vivid shades of blue and red, the stamp captures the cool, crisp atmosphere of the Winter Olympics. It bears the inscription “Xes Jeux Olympiques d’Hiver – Grenoble 1968” and the denomination 0.60 franc, with “République Française” marking its national origin.
