This World War II semi-postal from the Independent State of Croatia (NDH), issued in 1942, features a bold postal horn framing the iconic red-and-white šahovnica shield. The brown-and-red design symbolizes state authority and postal communication during the wartime occupation period. The surcharge 7 kuna + 3.50 kuna includes a charity component supporting state-directed wartime funds. These semi-postals are popular with specialists studying Axis-aligned postal administrations, propaganda imagery, and NDH postal history. Crisp printing and strong contrast make well-centered examples particularly sought after.
