1960 Germany Poster Stamp Ikofa. International Colonial Goods And Gourmet Food Exhibition Munich 23 September To 2 October Unused Extremely Light Hinge Mark 95++% Original Gum

This German Poster Stamp Advertises The 1960 Ikofa Exhibition, Short For "Internationale Kolonialwaren- Und Feinkost-Ausstellung," Which Translates To “International Colonial Goods And Gourmet Food Exhibition.” Held In Munich From September 23 To October 2, 1960, This Event Showcased International Specialty Foods, Including Items Imported From Former Colonies Or Overseas Sources, A Practice Still Reflected In German trade at the time. The Stylized Modernist Design Features A Coffee Bean, A Lobster Claw, And What Appears To Be A Wedge Of Cheese Or Possibly A Bottle, All Rendered In Bold Contrasts Of Red, Blue, White, And Black. These Elements Symbolize Gourmet And Imported Delicacies. The Layout Reflects Postwar West German Graphic Trends And Emphasizes International Trade, Culinary Culture, And Luxury Consumption During The Wirtschaftswunder Period. No Visible Flaws Are Present On This Stamp. Visible Text (Rewritten In Sentence Form): German: Ikofa. Internationale Kolonialwaren- U. Feinkost-Ausstellung München 23.9.–2.10.1960 — English Translation: Ikofa. International Colonial Goods And Gourmet Food Exhibition Munich 23 September To 2 October 1960. Country Of Origin: Germany

Thanks So Much For Stopping By! Most Of The Poster Stamps And Cinderellas I Offer Are Truly Old Historic Treasures? Many Are Close To 100 Years Old Or More. Because Of Their Age, You Might Notice A Few Minor Imperfections Here And There. They're Full Of History And Character, But They Most Definitely Aren't Post Office Fresh. That's Especially True For Cinderella And Poster Stamps, So Please Take A Good Look At The Scans Because They're An Important Part Of The Description. Also, Please Note That The Backs Of Poster Stamps Are Typically Considered Much Less Important Than The Fronts, And Descriptions Can Be A Bit Subjective. If The Condition Of The Back Is Important To You, Just Reach Out. I Am Happy To Provide More Details Or Additional Scans.

I Do My Best To Describe Everything Honestly And Accurately, And To The Best Of My Ability, I Guarantee That All Items Are Genuine (Unless Otherwise Noted). I'm Not A Philatelic Expert, Just A Passionate Collector And Seller Who Cares About Getting It Right. Occasionally A Mistake Might Slip Through, But If An Item Turns Out To Be Fundamentally Not As Described, I'll Make It Right With A Refund.

Please Feel Free To Reach Out With Any Questions Or If You'd Like To See More Photos. I'm Always Happy To Help Before You Buy.

Your Satisfaction Is My Top Priority. The Rest Is Just A Bonus.

Thanks Again, And Happy Hunting!
