Issued September 8, 1959 to commemorate the dedication of Beethoven Hall in Bonn, this striking souvenir sheet brings together five of classical music's greatest composers in one collectible presentation.
The sheet features five stamps of Deutsche Bundespost, each honoring a giant of the classical era: Ludwig van Beethoven (20pf, center), G.F. Händel (10pf), Louis Spohr (15pf), Joseph Haydn (25pf), and Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy (40pf). Framing the Beethoven stamp is a facsimile of his handwritten musical manuscript — an elegant nod to the composer at the heart of this historic occasion.
