Humanitarian Heritage - Red Cross in Maximaphily (Coleção de Sérgio Pedro)


 The Red Cross, founded in 1863 from Henry Dunant’s vision, is celebrated in maximaphily through maximum cards showing perfect concordance between stamp, postcard, and postmark. These items document milestones such as the Battle of Solferino, the Geneva Convention, and national anniversaries. The collection highlight global diversity, authentic postcards, and first-day cancellations, reinforcing humanitarian values.

Beyond aesthetics, these artifacts preserve cultural heritage and educate on neutrality, compassion, and solidarity, making the Red Cross a timeless emblem of humanitarian service.
