Free Norway Propaganda Vignette

Norway · 1941 · No postal value

The vignette features a crown at the center, flanked by 'FRITT NORGE' (Free Norway) and 'KONGEN LEVE' (Long Live the King). 'NORGE' is at the top and '1941' at the bottom.

Issued during World War II, likely produced in Britain by the Norwegian government-in-exile, these vignettes symbolized defiance against the Nazi occupation and loyalty to the monarchy, serving as propaganda rather than postal currency.
