Tynwald Day, celebrated on July 5th, marks the annual open-air session of the Manx parliament on Tynwald Hill at St. John's — a continuous legislative assembly with Norse roots stretching back over a thousand years, making it arguably the oldest parliament in the world still in operation. The 1979 issue commemorates this occasion during a politically charged year for the Isle of Man, as the island was actively asserting its fiscal and administrative autonomy following the UK's 1973 entry into the EEC, from which Man was specifically excluded under Protocol 3.
