Finland 1941 Red Cross Surtax Semi-Postal, Block of 4

Finland · 1941 · 2.75mk + 25p, 3.50mk + 35p, 5mk + 50p

This semi-postal set was issued to raise funds for the Finnish Red Cross. The three stamps depict scenes of care and compassion: a nurse tending to a wounded soldier, a doctor examining a child, and a nurse comforting an elderly patient. The designs highlight the humanitarian work of the Red Cross during a difficult period.

Issued in 1941 during the Continuation War, these stamps helped fund the Red Cross's vital medical and relief efforts for both soldiers and civilians affected by the conflict.
