The annual Solidarity Campaign - Daggers from Southern Morocco
The annual Solidarity Campaign (Solidarité) in Morocco was established to raise funds for social welfare initiatives, poverty alleviation, and winter relief assistance for vulnerable communities. To support these charitable efforts, the postal administration issued annual semi-postal and surcharge issues, often highlighting traditional Moroccan craftsmanship, folk arts, and regional cultural heritage.
Issued in 1952 by Morocco (MAROC / المغرب), this airmail issue (POSTE AERIENNE) features Northern Fibulae (Fibules du Nord). The design showcases a pair of ornate silver fibulae—traditional triangular or round brooches connected by a heavy decorative chain, historically used by women in northern Morocco to fasten drapes and garments—celebrating North African silversmithing traditions alongside national humanitarian solidarity.
