Post Danmark Cover

This POST DANMARK cover was received  from a fellow stamp collector who I had purchased a series of 1980  Olympic stamps from the former German Democratic Republic. 

This cover included a June 2025 souvenir sheetlet showing the theme "Nordisk Mytologi - Mytiske Steder" (Nordic Mythology - Mythical Places), specifically "Hólm Høje" and "Feggeklit". 

It  also came with a souvenir sheetlet  celebrating classic Danish films including: "Kosmorama", a silent film from 1910; "Lykkehjulet" (The Wheel of Fortune), another silent film from 1910, with Urban Gad credited; "Café Paradis" (Paradise Cafe), a film from 1950; and "Olsen-banden" (The Olsen Gang), a film from 1968.

Another sheetlet included the 2013 Europa stamp from Denmark featuring an electric postal bicycle, reflecting Denmark's commitment to sustainable mail delivery. 

A single stamp issued in 1976 commemorated the 100th anniversary (1876-1976) of the Carlsberg Foundation. It featured Professor Emil Hansen, a former director of the Carlsberg Laboratory.
