Newspaper Stamp: Stylized Dove and Newspaper
Czechoslovakia · 1926 · 50 h
This definitive newspaper stamp features a stylized dove in flight, carrying a newspaper in its beak. The design, by V. H. Brunner, is a simple yet effective Art Deco representation of news delivery. The denomination '50' is prominently displayed, with the currency 'h' (haléřů) below.
Issued by the First Czechoslovak Republic, this stamp was used exclusively for the prepayment of postage on newspapers and periodicals, a common practice during this era to offer lower rates for printed matter.
