                 Fig 1,2,3,4, Hans Michel and Günther Kieser's 1960 Deutsche Bundespost stamps.
These wonderful stamps featuring Little Red Riding Hood  were produced by Hans Michel (1920-1996) and Günther Kieser (1930-  ) released for sale in October 1960. They were semi-postal stamps which means that they are postal stamps with surcharges added for cultural donation. Michel and Kieser had a studio together for fifteen years from 1951-1966, Together they designed many stamps and posters particularly Jazz posters and won many awards.
