Description
Produced on the orders of Captain Gussak, the camp Kommandant, however, the Bailiff of Jersey objected to the King’s head being disfigured – the matter was referred to Berlin where the objection was upheld and the order to destroy all these stamps was given… however, two complete sets and a few single values escaped destruction. A truly remarkable piece of philatelic history and great rarity. Ex. John Simpson (1950) – M. Wieneke Certificate of Authenticity
