Issued in 1953 by the Spanish colonial territory of Ifni, this semi-postal stamp features a striking portrait of a Berber man in traditional attire, rendered in shades of carmine red. The 5 + 5 centimos denomination indicates that an additional surcharge supported child welfare (“Pro Infancia”) programs. Printed by the F.N.M.T. (Madrid Mint), it exemplifies the classic Spanish colonial design style—symbolizing local identity and humanitarian aid. The stamp forms part of an annual series dedicated to charitable causes in Spanish-administered territories.
