The stamp features a simple rectangular design with the word 'Tirol' at the top, '12 HELLER' in the center, and 'LOKALPOST' at the bottom, all within a plain border.
Issued during the tumultuous period immediately following World War I and the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, this stamp served as a provisional local postal service for Tirol due to disruptions in the central postal system.
