Issued in 1975, this commemorative stamp celebrates the 200th anniversary of the Tierärztliche Hochschule Wien (Veterinary University of Vienna), one of the oldest veterinary institutions in Europe.
The design features the classic Bowl of Hygieia, the international emblem of veterinary and pharmaceutical sciences, shown in elegant gold against a deep maroon background.
Printed with crisp typographic clarity, it reflects Austria’s refined mid-20th-century graphic style.
This stamp is a key item for collectors of medical, veterinary, and educational thematic philately.
Well-centered and sharply engraved, it remains a sought-after issue from the schilling period.
