Algeria Semi-Postal Stamps, National Relief Fund

Algeria · 1944 · 1F+1F, 2.50F+2.50F, 5F+5F

This set of three semi-postal stamps was issued to raise funds for the National Relief Fund (Secours National). Each stamp features a distinct coat of arms: the arms of the city of Algiers, the city of Oran, and the city of Constantine. The design includes a surcharge, with the additional amount designated for charity.

Issued in 1944 during World War II, these stamps reflect the ongoing efforts to provide relief and support for civilians affected by the conflict, under the authority of the French Committee of National Liberation.
