Denmark Poster Stamp - Patriotic - "4th of May Day" - Honoring WWII Liberation

Description: [zipedit] DenmarkMærkat Poster Stamp Mærkat type poster stamp issued by the Frihedsfonden (Freedom Foundation) as a fundraising and publicity stamp. According to Wikipedia: The Freedom Foundation was established on 31 May 1945 as an independent institution. The purpose was to commemorate the freedom struggle during the German occupation and to provide support to the freedom fighters who had been injured during the occupation and their families. From 1970 , the foundation's financial support for injured resistance fighters was supplemented by state funds. Funds from the foundation were, among other things, instrumental in enabling the creation of the 4 May Colleges. The foundation was closed on 1 July 1995, and some of its tasks were then taken over by Arbejdsskadestyrelsen (The Danish Workers' Compensation Authority)This stamp was likely issued in the spring of 1946, before the first anniversary of the Danish liberation. It uses the logo that was adopted nationally to represent the Danish liberation - a numeral "4" superimposed over a "V" which represents the month of May, as well as standing for "Victory". This stamp is a mærkat, and is known both with and without a printer's imprint and mærkat number, and it was printed by F.E. Bording & Co. of København. It was registered by Bording as Mærkat # 4270. This example is the version without imprint. The stamp is printed on thin, poor quality paper, probably due to shortages brought about by the war. This example is F/VF, OG, NH. Approximate Image Size: 31 x 41 mm. * STOCK IMAGE DUE TO RECENT NON-DELIVERY CLAIMS - EXTRA FEES FOR SHIPPING MAY BE REQUIRED FOR SOME ADDRESSES. Please inquire if you have any questions.

Any lot with tracking WILL include details of contents and value for customs purposes. After 35+ years I decided to retire from being an active Cinderella Stamp dealer. Most of my working inventory plus backup stock was sold at public auction. However, I have retained some material that I will be offering for sale. In addition, I have some "new" material that was mixed into lots I have bought for my own collections. I will be listing some of the material in my eBay store at fixed prices. I will also be offering some material at auction, either as single items or mixed lots. There will be many bargains available. There will be large and small lots, some containing similar material, some containing a random mixture, and some containing only one or a few items. The condition will be mixed, but none of the lots will be just accumulations of damaged or faulty stamps (unless specifically listed as such). Items in stockpage or larger lots may be removed and repackaged into glassines to save on shipping costs. A Note about Poster Stamps and Gum: Because many poster stamp collectors are primarily interested in the image on the stamp, the absence or presence of gum on the back is of little concern. If no mention of gum is made, then there may or may not be gum present. If you are only interested in poster stamps with original gum, please inquire before bidding. Actual condition issues (that are not apparent from the scan) WILL be described. * A Note about "Stock Images": Occasionally I will have more than one example of an item in inventory. Rather than scan each one individually, I may use the same image for multiple examples of the item. If that is the case, the item supplied will be in substantially the same, or better, condition than the image. Any such items will have the words: "STOCK IMAGE" at the end of the description.
