Two of the four stamps of the Federal Republic of Germany's April 6, 1976 youth services charity set depict three people. The 30 + 15 (pf) value (Mi #882) shows young men's basketball, and the 70 + 35 stamp (Mi #885) depicts young women's volleyball. These stamps are of the same style and format as the 1976 Berlin youth services charity set shown on page 7 of this thread. They were both designed by Heinz Schillinger (1929-2008) who designed many stamps for the BRD and Berlin from 1964-2005, particularly from the 70's through the 90's. Schillinger was a graphic designer who also taught at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg. His photo is courtesy of wikimedia.   |
