Switzerland Pro Juventute - Child with Apple

Switzerland · 1957 · 10+10c

This semi-postal stamp from Switzerland features a charming design of a young child holding a red apple. It was issued as part of the annual Pro Juventute (For the Youth) series, which raises funds for child welfare organizations. The design is simple yet evocative, capturing a moment of childhood innocence.

The Pro Juventute series, initiated in 1912, is a long-standing Swiss tradition of issuing charity stamps before Christmas to support youth programs and services across the country.
