Item Description
1977 Austria Commemorative Folder 50 Years of ABSV Serving Philately With 1974 Austria Commemorative Sheet Viktor Adler 60th Anniversary Of His Death Viktor Adler MNH In Protective Sleeve Number 01918 Leuchtturn Advertisement On Reverse. Reprint of the design by the artist Karl Offner, which was purchased by the Austrian Post and Telegraph Administration in 1925. Due to the situation at the time, the draft was not implemented. 1925, the year of the switch from crowns to shilling currency, also a change in artistic thinking and in the artists' creations, in the motifs that until then had been exhausted in the heads of the monarchs and in heraldic symbols. Karl Offner presented designs that showed the silhouette of Vienna for the first time, a motif that would appear more often as a brand image for Austrian brands over the years. Commemorative sheet on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the First Austrian Stamp Collectors Association. With permission from the Austrian Post and Telegraph Administration. Engraved by Werner Pfeiler. A Reprint For The Anniversary During Our Consultations And The Many Preliminary Discussions, As Is Usual In The Course Of Such A Large Event, We All Had The Feeling That Something Was Still Missing. The Exhibits From The Exhibitions, The Special Stamps, Somehow Seemed Too Little To Us. We Thought That A 50th Anniversary, An ÖVEBRIA Organized By Our Association For The First Time On This Occasion, Needed Something Special. Well, Thanks To The Special Courtesy Of The General Postal Directorate, We Can Come Up With A Reprint, Such As The WIPA Memorial Sheet And Most Recently The Reprint Of The Draft Of A Three Kreuzer Postage Stamp, Now Under The Name "Radnitzky Block" - One Of The Initiators' Sure Become A Rarity That Was Not Intended At All. A Commemorative Sheet Will Be Published Based On A Draft Purchased In 1925, Which Was Then Not Implemented Due To The Situation (See Adjacent Page) 1925, The Situation In The Currency Sector, The Restructuring At That Time, The Conversion From The Crown Currency To The Shilling Currency,Seller Information
