This full mint never hinged sheet of 100 stamps from the 1922 “Workers” definitive issue of the German Reich features the 160 pfennig denomination, printed in dark bluish turquoise. Designed by Paul Neu and printed by the Reichsdruckerei in Berlin, the stamp illustrates three figures representing industrial and agrarian labor—one wielding a hammer, another holding a sickle, and a third operating a plow—symbolizing the working class's essential role in rebuilding post-World War I Germany. Issued in May 1922 during the fragile years of the Weimar Republic and amid growing inflation, this stamp reflects the era’s socio-political focus on labor and productivity. Produced using typographic printing on paper with a waffle watermark (upright), the sheet is perforated with a comb pattern 14 x 14¼. Margins are intact and bear the plate markings, denomination sequence, and the imprint “Paul & Schwenke, Berlin W.30,” confirming its origin and printing control. The clean reverse shows clear watermark structure and no hinge marks, highlighting its untouched original gum. The stamp is listed as Michel DR 190, Scott DE 176, Yvert et Tellier DR 173, Stanley Gibbons DR 189, AFA DR 190, and Unificato DR 173. Condition Excellent MNH full sheet with strong color, crisp impressions, and superb centering, free of faults or folds. Estimate "$180 – 220".
