Caritas issues 1936-1937, 15s., pencil drawing by Axel Roosman, 41x51mm, on perforated cardboard. Arms of Paide. Caritas heart with 3 flames. The CARITAS ribbon is similar to the EESTI POST ribbon in AK-9C and may be the origin of the EESTI POST ribbon on the 50S postage stamp of 1937. Both the CARITAS and EESTI POST inscriptions have a slanted 'S', similar to AK-3A. A slanted "S", only in CARITAS, is shown in AK-2B, AK-2D, AK-3C and AK-5B and a slanted "S" only in EESTI POST in AK-1C, AK-7D, AK-9A and AK-9C.
