Denmark – Scott #s 371-73, used

Description

Issued by Denmark in 1961, this three-value set (Scott #371–373) depicts traditional Danish farm and rural themes, each stylized through strong modernist engraving. The 20 øre (green) shows a large wagon wheel with farm buildings beyond, the 30 øre (red) features a windmill and agricultural structures, and the 60 øre (blue) presents rolling fields and farm machinery silhouetted against the landscape.

Created during a period of agricultural modernization, the set highlights Denmark’s long-standing rural economy and the changing shape of farming in the mid-20th century. These examples are postally used, with clear dated cancels and full design detail. A handsome trio for collectors of Danish landscape and agriculture issues.
