Issued by Germany (Deutsche Bundespost) in 1969, this attractive semi-postal stamp features a dynamic illustration of a roe deer (Rehbock) captured mid-leap, symbolizing the vitality of European wildlife. The additional +5 Pfennig surcharge supported youth welfare initiatives (“Für die Jugend”). Wildlife-themed semi-postals from this period are popular among thematic collectors focusing on fauna, conservation, and European postal history. Its warm ochre background and lifelike animal depiction make it a visually striking addition to wildlife collections. Well-centered examples with intact perforations are especially desirable.
