Iceland Diplomatic Passport – Wife Of Minister
Iceland’s passports are already difficult to find, but an Iceland Diplomatic is most rare and this one comes full of visas and stamps, issued to Gudrun Gislason, the wife of former cabinet minister Gylfi Gislason. Her passport was issued in 1971, then three times extended, and expired in 1980. Iceland Diplomatic Passport
Great visas and stamps showing the frequent travel as a diplomat’s wife. Several diplomatic visas from Poland and the Soviet Union (which are most rare), further East Germany, UK, Czech Republic, Netherlands, Greece, Portugal, West Germany, and Denmark.
This Iceland Diplomatic passport is in excellent condition, but the spine has some imperfection, so a few pages are taped. However, the document is overall in very collectible condition and the failures are not really disturbing for such a precious collectible.
