Saar Meter Stamp, Deutsche Bundespost 20 Pfennig

Germany (Saar) · 1955 · 20 Pfennig

A rectangular meter stamp featuring 'SAAR' and 'DEUTSCHE BUNDESPOST' at the top, separated by a wavy line from the '20 PF' denomination below. The design is functional and typical of early meter frankings.

This meter stamp reflects the postal administration of the Saar Protectorate in the post-WWII era, a period when the region was under French control but maintained strong postal links with West Germany through the Deutsche Bundespost, prior to its reintegration into Germany.
