Copyright in Germany expires 70 years after the death of the artist which clearly hasn't passed yet. So this image isn't in the public domain. Adamant1 (talk) 12:58, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

what is the name from the artist? Qwertzu111111 (talk) 14:20, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No clue. If your asking because you think the drawing might in the public domain, you could be right, but we have no way of knowing unless some can figure out who the artist is and the stamp probably constitutes an original work anyway. So the important question would be who is the stamp designer. My guess is Deutsche Bundespost and their stamps are copyrighted. In my experience it's extremely rare that a stamp of an otherwise public domain work is kept as PD. Especially in cases like this where the stamps contains it's own unique elements. We can't keep it just because we don't know who artist of the picture is in the meantime either. --Adamant1 (talk) 14:45, 24 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted: per nomination. There are two artists here, de:Hans Michel (Grafiker) (died 1996) and de:Günther Kieser (alive), so the file can be restored 70 years after Kieser's death. --Rosenzweig τ 16:42, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
