Postage Stamps Germany Europa-C.E.P.T. 1972 (Michel DE FDC716-717/1)

This series of stamps, bearing the catalogue number Michel DE FDC716-717/1, is part of an annual series of stamps commemorating the cooperation and unity of European nations under the banner of C.E.P.T. (European Conference of Posts and Telecommunications). In 1972, the focus was on modern architecture and construction, which was the thematic motif of the stamps issued under this series.

Issue Details

In 1972, two stamps, each with a different theme, were issued for Germany as part of the Europa series, symbolising architectural progress and a common European identity. The Michel DE FDC716-717/1 series contains two stamps with the following face value:

  1. Michel 716 stamp - represents the motif of modern architecture, symbolizing innovation and technical progress in European countries.
  2. Michel 717 stamp - emphasizes cultural unification and a common European vision that transcends national boundaries.

These stamps were issued on FDC (First Day Cover) covers, a special collector's format that features stamps stamped on the first day of issue. FDC covers are prized by philatelists not only for their preservation of the original appearance, but also for their historical significance.

Design and Symbolism

The Europa-C.E.P.T. stamps often focus on themes that promote the unity and common values of European nations. In 1972, designers focused on the link between technical innovation and social cohesion. These stamps therefore reflect both the architectural trends of the time and symbolize the progressive ideas that led to stronger cooperation between European states.
