Description
The listing, WEST BERLIN GERMANY 2-PFENNIG NOTOPFER "BLUE FLEA" POSTAL TAX STAMP has ended.
Because West Berlin was economically prostrate and unable to support itself, the West German government passed a "Notopfer Berlin" (Berlin emergency levy) requiring the use of a 2pf postal tax stamp on virtually every piece of mail from Dec. 1, 1948, to March 31, 1956, with funds raised going to the support of West Berlin.
These small, blue Notopfer Berlin postal tax stamps, are known as the "Blue Flea" stamps and now have become Cold War collectables.
