The motifs of the stamp block are dedicated to the post-war period. The television »HF 1«, designed in 1958 by Herbert Hirche, is an example of the simple, simple form of the late 1950s. Also typical of the path of the young design culture is the "mono-a" cutlery designed by Peter Raacke in 1959, which is still in production today. An exposed place in the history of design is also certain of the "bottle of pearls" created by Günter Kupetz in 1969. Their appetizing appearance wins them above all through the fresh mediating pearl wreath. A true top performance in terms of form and technology is the magnetic levitation train Transrapid Europa - the design from 1982 is by Alexander Neumeister.
