Vintage Germany Poster Stamp Alpina. Home Sun. Original Hanau. For 220 Volt Direct Or Alternating Current. RM 98, Postage Paid Unused Hinge Mark 90% Original Gum PLEASE NOTE THAT THE YELLOW INK IS PROBABLY A BIT FADED!This Art Deco–Era Poster Stamp Advertises The Alpina Heimsonne, A German Ultraviolet Or Infrared Therapeutic Lamp Manufactured In Hanau, A City Known For Its Precision Glass And Lighting Equipment. The Design Features A Stylized Rendering Of The Lamp Positioned Dramatically On A Rocky Outcrop With The Sun Rising Over A Mountain Range In The Background, Likely Representing The Alps—Reinforced By The Prominent Word Alpina At The Top. The Lamp’s Reflector And Bulb Are Shown In Detail, Suggesting Advanced engineering and a futuristic, medical aesthetic. The Word Heimsonne, Meaning "Home Sun," Refers To Its Intended Purpose As A Sunlamp For Domestic Use, Promoting Health Benefits Associated With Sunlight During The 1920s And 1930s. The Stamp Reads Original Hanau, Referring To The Manufacturer, And Indicates A Price Of RM 98 (Reichsmark), With The Note Frei Haus, Meaning Postage Paid Or Free Delivery. The Text Along The Bottom Confirms That The Lamp Operates On Either 220-Volt Direct Or Alternating Current. This Stamp Was Likely Distributed As A Promotional Label Or Included In Product Literature. A Horizontal Fold Line Is Visible Across The Center, But The Design Remains Intact And Vivid. Visible Text (Rewritten In Sentence Form): German: Alpina. Heimsonne. Original Hanau. Bei 220 Volt Gleich- Oder Wechselstrom. RM 98 Frei Haus — English Translation: Alpina. Home Sun. Original Hanau. For 220 Volt Direct Or Alternating Current. RM 98, Postage Paid.
