This is a complete sheet of the 1934 Croatian exile issue, reportedly printed in Vienna. The design features a map of Croatia and the coat of arms, with the inscription 'NEZAVISNA DRŽAVA HRVATSKA' (Independent State of Croatia). This particular sheet is noted for a printing error, making it an unusual and sought-after item for specialists.

These stamps were privately produced propaganda labels for the Ustaše, a Croatian fascist and ultranationalist organization, while in exile before World War II. They were not valid for postage but served to promote the cause of an independent Croatian state.
