Issued by Deutsche Bundespost in 1972, this charming semi-postal Christmas stamp (value 30+15 pfennig) depicts the Three Wise Men presenting gifts to the Christ Child. Rendered in a vibrant, folk-art style with geometric patterns and warm tones, the design captures the joyous spirit of the Nativity. The “+15” surcharge supported welfare and charity initiatives, as part of Germany’s traditional Weihnachtsmarke (Christmas Charity) series. Its stylized, almost toy-like depiction of the Magi makes it a standout example of early 1970s German graphic design in philately.
