Denmark Poster Stamp - Advertising "Folakoks" with Car

Description: [zipedit] DenmarkAdvertising Poster Stamp Poster stamp issued to advertise a product called FOLAKOKS, but the exact nature of the product eludes me. The design of this stamp depicts the a car driving rapidly, and the text reads "Go/Drive With Kolakoks", which would indicate automotive fuel such as gasoline. But the word "Koks" means Coke (the solid carbon-rich byproduct of the petroleum refining process. To further complicate things, the image of the speeding car, and product name "Folakoks" were both trademarks registered by the Aalborg Portland-Cement-Manufacturing Company in 1942. Regardless of the intended product advertised, this is a nice automotive image. This is a Mærkat style poster stamp, published by F.E. Bording A/S, in 1943, and is numbered 2039. This example is F/VF, OG, NH. Approximate Image Size: 31 x 51 mm. * STOCK IMAGE DUE TO RECENT NON-DELIVERY CLAIMS - EXTRA FEES FOR SHIPPING MAY BE REQUIRED FOR SOME ADDRESSES.

After 35+ years I decided to retire from being an active Cinderella Stamp dealer. Most of my working inventory plus backup stock was sold at public auction. However, I have retained some material that I will be offering for sale. In addition, I have some "new" material that was mixed into lots I have bought for my own collections. I will be listing some of the material in my eBay store at fixed prices. I will also be offering some material at auction, either as single items or mixed lots. There will be many bargains available. There will be large and small lots, some containing similar material, some containing a random mixture, and some containing only one or a few items. The condition will be mixed, but none of the lots will be just accumulations of damaged or faulty stamps (unless specifically listed as such). Items in stockpage or larger lots may be removed and repackaged into glassines to save on shipping costs. A Note about Poster Stamps and Gum: Because many poster stamp collectors are primarily interested in the image on the stamp, the absence or presence of gum on the back is of little concern. If no mention of gum is made, then there may or may not be gum present. If you are only interested in poster stamps with original gum, please inquire before bidding. Actual condition issues (that are not apparent from the scan) WILL be described. * A Note about "Stock Images": Occasionally I will have more than one example of an item in inventory. Rather than scan each one individually, I may use the same image for multiple examples of the item. If that is the case, the item supplied will be in substantially the same, or better, condition than the image. Any such items will have the words: "STOCK IMAGE" at the end of the description.
