Issued by Hungary in 1943, this powerful Red Cross semi-postal stamp (30f + 30f) reflects wartime themes of service and sacrifice. The design features the silhouette of a soldier with helmet and bayonet, contrasted with a nurse attending to a mother and child, symbolizing protection and humanitarian aid. The bold red cross emblem stands out prominently, representing the international mission of the Red Cross during World War II. Semi-postals like this carried an added surcharge (here, 30f) to support relief efforts, making them historically significant. A striking piece that embodies both military duty and humanitarian care, ideal for Red Cross and WWII topical collections.
