National Stamp Exhibition "DDR 79" on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the GDR in Dresden From 10 to 19 August 1979, the National Stamp Exhibition "DDR 79" will take place in the halls at Fucikplatz in Dresden. It is organized by the Philatelistenverband in the Cultural League of the GDR and is dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the German Democratic Republic. With her philatelic exhibits from all districts, she will give a representative overview of the possibilities of a modern socialist philately, which is an integral part of cultural folk art. Especially with the thematic collections, the "DDR 79" will document the 30-year development of our republic, it will reflect the successes in many areas of social life, represented by the way led by the working class and its Marxist-Leninist party and the prospects of further expression of the developed socialist society. With the "DDR 79" continues the series of large national exhibitions of philatelists, in the so far the I. DEBRIA (= German Stamp Exhibition) 1950 in Leipzig, the II. DEBRIA for the 10th Anniversary of the Republic 1959 in Berlin and the Performance shows for the 15th anniversary of the GDR in 1964 in Berlin, the 50th anniversary of the Great Socialist October Revolution 1967 in Karl Marx City, the 20th birthday of the GDR in 1969 in Magdeburg and the 25th anniversary of the socialist German state 1974 in Karl Marx City are called. The "DDR 79" is therefore the seventh highlight in the history of the National Exhibitions. In addition to the philatelists, other cultural leisure areas will also be represented on her with selected exhibits, which have found a home in the Cultural League of the GDR - similar to philately - for decades. For this special issue of the "DDR 79" interesting Dresden motifs were selected, taking into account the fact that many other attractions of the city have been previously displayed on postage stamps of the GDR. One of the most modern Dresden fountains from the Prager Straße faces the brand at 20 Pfennig. It shows the Pusteblumebrunnen, which has found its place in front of an ice cream café. It was designed and manufactured by Leonie Wirth and the blacksmith Karl Bergmann and is one of the most photographed sights in the pedestrian area of Prague Street. In addition, brands like Block adhere to the emblem of the "DDR 79", which the Rostock graphic designer Jochen Berthold created for publicity promoting the exhibition.
