1935 CHILDERN OF BELGIAN QUEEN ASTRID AND KING LEOPOLD STAMP
In 1935 everyone was moved at the death of beautiful Queen Astrid of Belgium in a
motor accident, and collectors rushed to buy the mourning stamp with which Belgium
commemorated her death, and the charity stamps which helped to raise large sums to
fight tuberculosis in the country she loved. When, earlier in the same year, another very
popular series was issued, which showed the Belgian Royal children, no one thought
that within a very few months those children would be motherless. There are many
"stamps of tragedy" but few with more poignant memories than these.
