Fund-raising stamps for club-house (sokolovna) in Bratislava.
The Sokol club in Bratislava was founded in 1919,
and flourished there. By the mid-20's the club
had raised enough money through sale of these
labels and other methods to purchase and renovate
a
former dance-hall named Bellevue
to serve as their club-house, gym,
meeting hall, etc. They held a festival to
dedicate it from June 26 to July 6, 1927.
12/31/18 - Štefan Šuták has confirmed that the labels above
were printed in 1927, by V. Neubert of Prague, and that there is a third color,
but he does not know what it is. The artist may be a Czech painter named Mrázek.
04/11/2022 - Štefan sent the image below, of all three colors.
The postcard below, dated 1928, shows the completed Sokol house.
