FDC made in the Soviet Union, 1985. The text on the envelope reads:”Monument to the Azerbaijan poet M.A. Sabir”. Mirza Alakbar Sabir (1862-1911) was an Azerbaijani satirical poet, public figure, philosopher and teacher. He set up a new attitude to classical traditions, rejecting well-trodden ways in poetry. The artistic thought of the Azerbaijani people found expression in Fuzûlî’s works. They have been examples of the lyric to this day, and the satirical trend in Azerbaijani literature, and especially in poetry.
