Georg Elser-Briefmarke
Description
Johann Georg Elser (4 January 1903 - 9 April 1945) was a German opponent of Nazism. He is best remembered for his unsuccessful attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler in 1939. Pictured above is a German stamp issued in his honor in 2003. In Munich there is both a town square and a concert hall named after him.
