This listing refers to the 1980 Dutch Children's Stamps (Kinderpostzegels) issue, which typically features designs created by children to promote creativity and support child welfare initiatives. Princess Margriet officially launched the sale of these stamps in Den Haag on November 11, 1980.

The involvement of the Dutch Royal Family, such as Princess Margriet, underscores the national importance and charitable mission of this initiative.
