This 1961 Pro-Infancia charity stamp from IFNI, a former Spanish territory in North Africa, depicts a male high jumper in mid-flight, captured in the classic straddle technique as he clears the bar. Rendered in a striking reddish-brown hue, the design celebrates youth, athleticism, and national vigor. The additional surcharge of 5 céntimos supported child welfare initiatives (Pro-Infancia), part of Spain’s broader philatelic tradition of combining postage with social aid. The stamp elegantly merges sports and humanitarian spirit, hallmarks of Spain’s mid-20th-century colonial issues.
