Here comes a somewhat older souvenir sheet. To be exact: the oldest souvenir sheet in philatelic history: issued in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg on January 3, 1923, on the occasion of the birth of Princess Elisabeth (whose mother was Grand Duchess Charlotte).  |

This souvenir sheet is not quite as old as the one from Luxembourg: it was issued in the German Reich on November 29, 1933, for the 10th anniversary of the German Emergency Aid. The stamps show images from the life of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary (as the daughter of the Hungarian king, she married at the age of 14 Louis IV, who became the landgrave of Thuringia; hence she is known in Germany as Saint Elizabeth of Thuringia). After her husband's death, she regained her dowry, using the money to build a hospital where she herself served the sick. She became a symbol of Christian charity after her death at the age of 24 and was canonized in 1235. She is venerated as a saint by the Catholic Church.  |
