Der Deutschen Bundespost Munich Olympics 1972

DEUTSCHE BUNDESPOST (former West Germany postal service) on 10 September issued a series of  First Day Cover stamps for various events during  the Summer Olympics held in Munich. Shown here are four of the events: wrestling, gymnastics, swimming and sailing.

Tragically the massacre of Israeli athletes by the Palestinian terrorist group Black September overshadowed the awards and records set in this Olympiad.
