Here's a "poster stamp" which could be stuck onto an envelope to advertise a business, alongside the regular postage stamp.

I know very little about it, having just spotted it for sale on eBay. It's from Denmark, and it appears to be for a business that handles Funditor equipment.

I'm guessing it's from the 1950s and I love the stylised illustration.
