A compelling charity issue from Turkey, originally denominated 4 kuruş and later surcharged to 20 para in bold black typography. Issued for the Türkiye Kızılay Derneği (Turkish Red Crescent Society), the design depicts a humanitarian rescue scene beneath the emblematic red crescent, symbolizing relief and protection. These surcharged Red Crescent issues were produced in small corrective print runs, making them attractive to specialists in Turkish philately and surcharge varieties. A strong thematic item for Red Cross/Red Crescent, charity, and WWII-era humanitarian collections.
