4 printed essays of the Caritas issue of 1936, submitted to Alexander Koenig. 10S, 15S, 25S and 50S. The Caritas heart of the 25S essay is white and has an extra surrounding line, in contrast to the 25S postage stamp. The horizontally elongated "+" sign is similar to AK-1A, AK-2C, AK-5B, AK-5C and AK-7B. The four printed essays here were submitted to Alexander Koenig and can be distinguished from other non-submitted printed essays by the specifics of their line perforation and separation, for example the long tooth at the bottom right of the 10S printed essay. The teeth of the 4 printed essays in the Alexander-Koenig Album are specific to each essay and were already displayed in Eesti Filatelist (No.30, 1984, p.6). The 4 printed essays were described in Eesti Filatelist (1984, p.6) as "Endgültige Vorlagen" and were assigned in H/O (1986, pp.152-153) the catalog sub-numbers G:2, with the descriptions "Essay, final design/Endgültige Vorlage". Essays of the Caritas issue of 1936 are very rare.
