This 30 centimes charity stamp from Luxembourg, issued in 1946, depicts a nurse tending to a patient, symbolizing the humanitarian work of the Red Cross. Designed by P. Blank, the issue aimed to raise funds for social and health causes in the aftermath of World War II. Printed in a striking red-orange hue, the imagery reflects themes of care, recovery, and compassion. Stamps of this series were semi-postals, with a surcharge supporting charitable institutions, making them significant for both historical and philatelic collections. A fine example of Luxembourg’s dedication to humanitarian themes in mid-20th century philately.
