Description: Poster stamps, the slightly larger cousin to postage stamps, came into use about the same time during the 1860s. These color illustrated advertising pieces were a creative and affordable way for retailers who may not have otherwise been able to afford full color ads. Poster stamps are wonderfully illustrated mini works of art and are highly collectible. Today these types of stamps are often referred to as cinderella stamps, which refers to anything resembling a postage stamp that wasn't actually issued for postal purposes. This listing is for a cinderella stamp from Germany promoting Continental shoe heels, we believe it's circa the 1910s. The text reads "Wear Continental Shoe Rubber. A blessing for all!" It measures approximately 2 1/8 inches by 1 1/2 inches. Ungummed, well centered, good condition.
