1936-1937 South Africa Poster Stamp Empire Exhibition Government Exhibition Unused Hinge Mark 80% Original GumThis Poster Stamp Was Issued To Promote The Empire Exhibition Held In Johannesburg, South Africa, From 1936 To 1937. The Design Features A Stylized Red Protea Flower, South Africa’s National Flower, Enclosed Within A Circular Emblem That Bears The Event’s Trilingual Title: “Empire Exhibition,” “Ryksentoontstelling,” And “South Africa Suid Afrika.” The Text Appears In English, Afrikaans, And Dutch-Influenced Orthography, Emphasizing The Country’s Colonial And Multilingual Identity At The Time. The Dates “1936 1937” Are Embedded Within The Flower’s Stem Area. Set Against A Deep Blue Background, The Emblem Is Encircled By A Green Band That Suggests Unity And Growth Within The British Empire. The Empire Exhibition In South Africa Was Modeled After Similar Exhibitions In Glasgow And London And Was Intended To Showcase Industrial, Agricultural, And Cultural Achievements Of British Dominions. The Event Took Place At Milner Park And Was A Major Symbol Of South Africa’s Role Within The Empire During The Interwar Period. The Stamp Has Clean Edges And Shows No Visible Flaws.
