This set of three stamps features a portrait of Frederick the Great, King of Prussia from 1740 to 1786. The stamps were issued in 1933 for Potsdam Day, commemorating the historical figure.

Frederick the Great was a pivotal figure in Prussian history, known for his military victories and expansion of the Prussian empire, including the conquest of parts of Poland. The issuance of these stamps in 1933 by the German Reich reflects a nationalistic emphasis on historical German leaders during the early Nazi era.
