German East Africa 'Gott Strafe England' Propaganda Forgery

German East Africa · 1916 · 50 Pfennig

This British propaganda forgery depicts a German East Africa definitive stamp, featuring a ship in a harbor, overprinted with the phrase 'G.E.A. / GOTT / STRAFE / ENGLAND / 1916' in black.

Created by the British during World War I, this stamp was used for psychological warfare, satirizing the German patriotic slogan 'Gott strafe England' and distributed to undermine enemy morale.
