Xth Party Congress of the SED, 2nd Edition The Ministry of Post and Telecommunications of the German Democratic Republic publishes four multicolored special postage stamps and a block for the Xth Party Congress of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany, which show paintings from the contemporary works of East German artists , Special cancellation from March 24 to May 23, 1981 X. Party Congress of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany The second issue of the Xth Party Congress of the Socialist Unity Party of Germany (April 11-16, 1981) focuses on the deep political, economic, social and political life mentions spiritual and cultural changes that take place and take place under the leadership of the SED on the soil of the GDR. Especially the seventies were in the process of realization of the main task in their unity of economic and social policy to the most successful years of our previous development. At the same time, new internal and external conditions have emerged, which are, on the one hand, the result of the increased radiation of the main task, but which, on the other hand, considerably complicate their further realization in comparison to the beginning of the seventies. For this reason, the Xth SED Congress will above all ask how the power of the whole people can secure what has been achieved and thus create the conditions for the further gradual increase in the material and intellectual and cultural living standards of the working people. The issue, whose design templates were paintings by important visual artists of the GDR, goes into this complicated dialectic. Bernhard Heisig's "Brigadier" served as a template for the value of 20 Pfennig. Strong and self-confident, this Brigadier takes up almost the entire picture. The viewer's gaze falls on his upraised thumb, which is obviously an indication of the direction of a complicated work process, a signal to carry out this process and a symbol for the success of it at the same time. The blue of the Brigadier's jacket blends into the blue of the sky, thus artistically demonstrating the historical and social power of the working class.
