Joep StevensKruger National Park History
3 hrs ·
Always interesting how the Kruger Park brand became so globally known as an icon. In 1937 an attractive series of Kruger Park publicity stamps by well-known South African artist, Ernest Ullmann (1900 – 1975) were launched with the aim to carry the message of this great game sanctuary to every corner of the globe. Herewith a 1937 newspaper clipping with the famous promotional stamps shown.

Re: Kruger Stamps
Great idea, but it could not work today. Nobody in his/her mind would dream of sending a letter from South Africa to overseas, if they want it to arrive the same year
