Great personalities

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Under the name Personalities gave German post office of the GDR from 1973 to 1981 year and then again in 1987 and 1989, 12 issues a comprehensive series of single stamps and sets out that the offset printing process has been printed. The editions published in sets with different denominations each contained a value in a significantly reduced edition (so-called blocking value ). Personalities from German-speaking countries whose birth or death anniversaries were honored were shown. Mainly personalities from the German-speaking area were represented. This series can be viewed as the successor to the series Famous People issued from 1967 to 1972 .

The Lipsia catalog of the GDR does not distinguish between the two series as important personalities . Here the description of the Michel catalog was chosen.
