Mother and Child

German Democratic Republic · 1958 · 50 Pfennig

The stamp features a stylized depiction of a woman holding a child, with the denomination '50' and 'DEUTSCHE DEMOKRATISCHE REPUBLIK' inscribed. The design is simple and evocative, emphasizing human connection.

Issued by the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) in 1958, this stamp likely reflects the socialist state's emphasis on family, social welfare, and the role of women and children in society, common themes in post-war socialist propaganda.
