A diamond-shaped ₹100 stamp with a line drawing of Mahatma Gandhi beside a spinning wheel, with a handwritten message and his signature below.
The Khadi Stamp
India Post issued this stamp, printed on khadi, in a miniature sheet on 12 February 2011, the first day of Indipex 2011, the world philatelic exhibition held at Pragati Maidan, New Delhi, from 12 to 18 February. Khadi, the hand-spun and hand-woven cloth that Gandhi promoted as swadeshi during the freedom struggle, was first made at his Sabarmati Ashram in 1917–18.
India Post has no brochure for this issue online, so this text draws on Wikipedia.
