Germany (Berlin) 10 Pfennig Definitive - Buildings Series

Germany (West Berlin) · 1949 · 10 Pf

This definitive stamp features the Berlin City Hall (Rotes Rathaus), a prominent landmark in the city. Part of the first definitive series issued for West Berlin, it is characterized by its simple, clear design and the overprint "BERLIN" on contemporary German stamps of the era.

Issued in 1949, this stamp represents the establishment of a separate postal administration for West Berlin during the early Cold War, following the division of Germany and its former capital.
