Germany WWI Propaganda Stamp Gott Strafe England God Punish England Wotan

A German propaganda stamp from the World War I period. Item Details Slogan: "Gott strafe England" (God punish England) and "Er strafe es" (May He punish it). Denomination: 2 pfennig (notional) Subject: A god-like figure hurling lightning at the British Isles. Historical Context This stamp is a potent example of the anti-British propaganda produced in Germany during WWI. The slogan "Gott strafe England" became a popular patriotic catchphrase, used on everything from letters to everyday objects. The imagery, showing a figure resembling the Germanic god Wotan (Odin) attacking Britain from the clouds, was intended to invoke a sense of mythological and righteous fury against the enemy. The initials "B.A.D." and "N.O." are visible in the upper corners. Combined Shipping We offer combined shipping.
