Slovakia 1940 Definitive: Slovak National Theatre, 10 Koruna

Slovakia · 1940 · 10 Slovak Koruna

This blue definitive stamp from 1940 depicts the historic Slovak National Theatre in Bratislava, a prominent architectural landmark. The design features the neoclassical facade of the theatre, with the country name 'SLOVENSKO' and the denomination '10 Ks' clearly visible.

Issued during the First Slovak Republic, a period when Slovakia existed as a client state of Nazi Germany, this stamp series aimed to assert a distinct Slovak national identity through its imagery of national landmarks.
