European stamp issues of the Second World War : images of triumph, deceit and despair
Parker, David (Historian)2015
Book
Today, stamps still claim to commemorate aspects of a nation's history and achievements. During World War II, however, stamps were symbolically hugely important: they proclaimed military victories, they 'authenticated' occupation of long contested territory, restored pride in historic achievements, or simply proclaimed continuing independence. This book examines the stamps of 22 nations, many in full colour.
