Horse Racing, Grand Prix of Vienna

Germany · 1944 · 12+38 pfennig

The stamp depicts a dynamic scene of horse racing, showing a jockey on horseback mid-stride, with the text 'Großer Preis von Wien' (Grand Prix of Vienna) and 'Deutsches Reich' at the bottom.

Issued by Nazi Germany in 1944 during World War II, this semi-postal stamp likely included a surcharge to fund war efforts or related social programs, a common practice during wartime.
