Bizone 1948 Building with Network Overprint

Germany (Bizone) · 1948 · 50 Pfennig

A 50 Pfennig stamp depicting a classical building, likely a post office, with a distinctive network-pattern overprint across the design.

Issued in 1948 for the British-American Occupied Zone of Germany, this stamp is part of a definitive series used during the immediate post-WWII reconstruction period, featuring a 'Netzaufdruck' (network overprint) to deter counterfeiting and prevent reuse.
