Franchise stamps from the Swiss Post serve a specific purpose in supporting charitable organizations, including the Salvation Army. Among these stamps, the 369 overprint is notable as an issue attributed to the Salvation Army, used from 1926 onward. The cachet is an official designation from the “Colonie Agricole de L’Armee du salut,” referring to the Salvation Army’s agricultural colony in St. Aubin. This combination underscores the historical significance and unique role of these stamps in promoting charitable initiatives.
