Theriesienstadt, Theriesienstadt, the notorious walled ghetto in Czechoslovakia, was the only concentration camp officially inspected by the Red Cross—but only after the construction of dummy stores, a bank, a café gardens and other amenities to fool the world about the prisoners' treatment. 1943 Parcel Authorization label (Mi. 1, 1 UI), full sheet of 25, imperforate at left, also with double perforations vertically between the bottom three stamps in the 4th and 5th columns, resulting in a natural separation between those stamps (which, in turn, resulted in a light crease of the middle stamp in the last column); original gum, never hinged, F-VF, each stamp signed Gilbert.
