This 15 Francs Saar stamp was issued in 1956 to commemorate the Internationale Saarmesse (International Saar Fair), an important trade exhibition. The bold modernist design features green industrial forms on a deep red background, symbolizing the region's industrial strength and economic ambitions. Below is a stylized emblem with a currency symbol and gear, denoting trade and industry. Printed by Courvoisier S.A., this stamp reflects Saar's cultural identity during its brief period of autonomy before its reintegration into West Germany in 1957.
