Los-Nr. 218A

Caritas issue of 1937, 25s., water color design by Axel Roosman, 42x53,5mm, on perforated cardboard. Arms of Valga. "Hairy" Caritas heart with 1 flame, tilted to the left and with short strokes at the top. Partially asymmetric design, with the Caritas heart slanted to the left as in pencil drawing AK-3A. "1937" is in the same font as on the 25S postage stamp of 1937 and the value inscriptions "25" are in a related style. The coat of arms on this watercolor design AK-8D and on the 25S postage stamp have an extra surrounding line. The partially crosscut flower bud in AK-8D by Roosman reappears in Reindorff's AK-17A, AK-18A, 18B, 18C and 18D and subsequently on the four postage stamps of 1939.
