Cinderella labels issued in France 1930 to collect donations to build monument to commemorate General Joffre (1852-1931):

Five different colors, same value:

Joseph Jacques Césaire Joffre was a French general who served as Commander-in-Chief of French forces on the Western Front from the start of World War I until the end of 1916. He is best known for regrouping the retreating allied armies to defeat the Germans at the strategically decisive First Battle of the Marne in September 1914.

Quote:
Father Damien or Saint Damien of Molokai (1840 – 1889), born Jozef De Veuster, was a Roman Catholic priest from Belgium and member of the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary, a missionary religious institute. He won recognition for his ministry, which he lead from 1873 until his death in 1889, in the Kingdom of Hawaii for people with leprosy (also known as Hansen's disease), who were required to live under a government-sanctioned medical quarantine on the island of Molokai, off the Kalaupapa Peninsula (Wikipedia)

Here is a presentation folder contains ten Cinderella stamps showing father Damien. I have no information about this folder and don't know who issued it. The Cinderella stamps are well designed and engraved but no name of the designer nor the engraver appears on them:


The labels in the next post.

Seems like these were from Belgium, issued in 1936:

Thank you, vayolene, for adding more "Mutualité Postale" Cinderella labels.

Thank you, Prexie3c, for the information. Unfortunately, I can't edit the post any more. I still wonder who issued such high quality and attractive folder with engraved labels.

Here is a Cinderella label from France issued by Papeterie and Bordet Company in Lyon 1914 publicizing the International Exhibition.

The two statues on both sides of the label, are allegories of the rivers Rhone and Saone surrounding Lyon. They are exhibited in Lyon museum:

These Cinderella labels were among a lot of Greek items I purchased for my Greek Mythology collection. Quick search revealed that they were issued as propaganda labels in 1916 for the State of Thessaloniki:

Quote:
The Provisional Government of National Defence, also known as the State of Thessaloniki, was a parallel administration, set up in the city of Thessaloniki by former Prime Minister Eleftherios Venizelos and his supporters during World War I, in opposition and rivalry to the official royal government in Athens.


The small labels show Eleftherios Venizelos, leader of the Greek national liberation movement. The large show Venizelos with Pavlos Kountouriotis and Panagiotis Danglis, called "The Triumvirate", the leaders of the State of Thessaloniki:

Here are Arab Cinderella labels with connection to the Israeli-Arab conflict:

Label issued in Egypt after the first Arab league meeting in 1946 aimed to collect donations to support the war of the Palestinians against the Jewish community in Palestine (State of Israel was not born yet, and the conflict was between the Jewish and Palestinians communities). It shows the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem and the bottom inscription reads "Donations to save Arab Palestine":

Label issued in Jordan in 1952 after the annexation of the West Bank (According to UN resolution from 1947, supposed to be part of an independent Arab State in Palestine). Label shows map of Israel (Palestine) and aimed to collect donations:

Label issued by the "Arab National Fund" shows map of Israel (Palestine) and aimed to collect donations. probably issued in the 1940's in the British Mandate on Palestine period:

Two labels issued by the "Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine" (PFLP), probably during the 1970's. In the first, Israel is symbolized by a snake. In the second label, Israel and the Zionist movement are symbolized by an octopus (although with eleven arms....) try to swallow Arab countries.


There are more labels in the PFLP set I still don't have with a very extremist anti Israeli propaganda.
