Saar Defiitives - 1949-1951

SAAR in December 1949 up until June 1951 issued  seventeen definitive stamps representing portraits, industry, and landscapes. The legend on these new stamps was changed to "SAAR" from the "SAARPOST" utilised for the previous definitive stamp series.

The 17 stamps featured 13 different designs: building trades, Ludwig von Beethoven, gears and factories, dumping mine waste, coal mine interior, communications symbols, emblem of printing, pottery, blast furnace worker, Saarbrücken, rock formation "Great Boot", Reden Colliery, and a view of Webelskirchen.
