1941 MEĐIMURJE, 80th anniversary

Today marks 80 years since the release of the first NDH local issue. A group of officials led by Dr Ivan Gliha, Chef de Cabinet of the temporary Međimurje Government and Dr Stjepan Wolf, a lawyer and renowned stamp collector, decided to prepare and release a local stamp issue of the Independent State of Croatia for the Međimurje area. The overprinting was executed in Kraljek & Vezić Printing Works in Čakovec between 12th and 15th April.
