Berlin Posthorn Definitive with Black Overprint

Germany (West Berlin) · 1948 · 50 Pfennig

A definitive stamp featuring a posthorn design, issued for Berlin. It has a black overprint of 'BERLIN' at the top and 'DEUTSCHE POST' at the bottom, with a '50 PFENNIG' denomination.

Issued in the immediate post-WWII era for West Berlin, these stamps reflected the administrative division of Germany and the unique status of the city during the early Cold War period.
