Germany 1958 Youth Welfare Semi-Postal: Fox and Goose Children's Song

Germany · 1958 · 10+5 Pfennig

This 1958 German semi-postal stamp depicts a scene from the popular children's song "Fuchs, du hast die Gans gestohlen" (Fox, you stole the goose), showing a fox with a goose and children. It was issued as part of a series supporting youth welfare.

Issued by Deutsche Bundespost, this stamp is a semi-postal, meaning a surcharge (5 Pfennig) was added to the face value (10 Pfennig) to raise funds for youth welfare programs in post-war West Germany.
