Germany is from the September 27, 1990 three-value History of the Post and Telecommunication charity set Heart warming stamp set made with full of love for postal service  - thank you, bookbndrbob, I have another set from Berlin but not aware of this one. And the vintage die-cut advert... beautiful ephemera! As an ephemerist (as well as a philatelist), I adore those. If you collect them too, this Ephemera Society might be of your interest..? Below linked article has a few die-cut commercial cards. http://www.ephemera-society.org.uk/...lection.html |

On June 20, 1952 Berlin issued a three-stamp set commemorating Pre-Olympic Festival Days. The three values are of identical design, but printed in colors commensurate with their intended postal usage. Here is the 20 (pf) value of this set.  |
