Denmark Poster Stamp - 1946 X Nordiske Rytterstævne

Description: [zipedit] Denmark Event Publicity Poster Stamp Mærkat type poster stamp issued as publicity for the X Nordiske Rytterstævne (10th Nordic Equestrian Show), held in København (Copenhagen), July 10 - 13, 1946. From the website of the Danish SPR (Sportsrideklubben) - which was founded on March 10, 1900: 1901 - The SPR holds Denmark's first riding event. The first competition was a distance of 81 km, which was won in the time 3 hours and 10 minutes by Hartvig (probably Ole Hartvig Nissen Johannson, a Norwegian wholesaler). 1943 - The Germans confiscated almost all Danish military horses. It caused great hardships for the competitions. Among other things. Krarup's horse Hackler, which had won 6 championship titles, was also confiscated. During the war, SPR managed to be the only club to conduct open competitions. The shows were of very high quality when the competition took place at the Sportsrideskolen, where the most talented members stood. 1946 - After the war, SPR was once again in charge of the most prestigious riding event in Denmark - Nordisk Rytterstævne X; The jumping began at the Østerbros Stadium, which King Christian X supported as a sponsor, bestowing an honorary award. The rest of the jumping took place in Bernstorffsparken. The horses were not very good, so a consortium was formed to buy horses for the most talented riders, so they could attend the Olympics in London in 1948.

Most of my working inventory plus backup stock was sold at public auction. However, I have retained some material that I will be offering for sale. In addition, I have some "new" material that was mixed into lots I have bought for my own collections. I will be listing some of the material in my eBay store at fixed prices. I will also be offering some material at auction, either as single items or mixed lots. There will be many bargains available. There will be large and small lots, some containing similar material, some containing a random mixture, and some containing only one or a few items. The condition will be mixed, but none of the lots will be just accumulations of damaged or faulty stamps (unless specifically listed as such). Items in stockpage or larger lots may be removed and repackaged into glassines to save on shipping costs. A Note about Poster Stamps and Gum: Because many poster stamp collectors are primarily interested in the image on the stamp, the absence or presence of gum on the back is of little concern. If no mention of gum is made, then there may or may not be gum present. If you are only interested in poster stamps with original gum, please inquire before bidding. Actual condition issues (that are not apparent from the scan) WILL be described. A Note about "Stock Images": Occasionally I will have more than one example of an item in inventory. Rather than scan each one individually, I may use the same image for multiple examples of the item. If that is the case, the item supplied will be in substantially the same, or better, condition than the image. Any such items will have the words: "STOCK IMAGE" at the end of the description.
