Seen on the upper parts of the stamps are letters "The great leader comrade Kim Jong Il will always be with us" and "Juche 100 (2011) - Juche 102 (2013)".

The stamps respectively feature a photo of Kim Jong Il giving guidance to a shelling drill of a unit of the Korean People's Army and a photo of him looking at vinalon cotton at the February 8 Vinalon Complex.

The stamps remind people of the revolutionary life of Kim Jong Il, who devoted his all to turning the DPRK into a country powerful in ideological, political and military fields, ensuring the wellbeing of the people and achieving the prosperity of the country.
