Adolf Hitler Graz 1945 Overprint

Austria · 1945 · 12+38 pfennig

A definitive stamp featuring a profile portrait of Adolf Hitler, originally issued by the Third Reich, overprinted diagonally with 'GRAZ 1945' for local use in Austria.

Issued in the chaotic final days of World War II, this provisional overprint reflects the collapse of German authority and the temporary local administration in Graz, Austria, before the Allied occupation.
