Description
Issued by Denmark in 1960, this three-stamp group (Scott #376–378) presents distinct commemorative themes marking national achievements and anniversaries.
The 60 øre blue (#376) honors the 10th anniversary of Scandinavian Airlines System (SAS), showing streamlined aircraft silhouettes set against dynamic horizontal lines, symbolizing postwar civil aviation and Nordic cooperation.
The 30 øre red (#377) commemorates Niels R. Finsen (1860–1904), the Danish physician and Nobel laureate noted for pioneering phototherapy. The engraving provides a dignified profile portrait marking his centenary.
The 60 øre violet-blue (#378) recognizes the World Refugee Year (1960), depicting a refugee mother and child, underscoring Denmark’s participation in international humanitarian relief during the United Nations campaign.
All examples are postally used, with legible cancels and full design detail. A meaningful trio for collectors of aviation, medical history, and United Nations–related issues.
