Offered here is a scarce mint never hinged (MNH) horizontal strip of Third Reich semi-postal stamps from the Reichsautobahn / Nurnberg memorial issue, featuring two different designs in se-tenant format.
This is a large multiple strip (10 stamps total) consisting of:
5x 4+6pf Reichsautobahn – “Brücke über die Saale” (Bridge over the Saale)
5x 3+2pf Ehrenmal in Nürnberg (Nuremberg Memorial)
These are semi-postal (charity) issues, where the additional surcharge (+6pf / +2pf) supported state projects tied to infrastructure and commemoration.

Issued during the expansion of the Reichsautobahn system, one of the most recognizable infrastructure programs of the period.
The Nürnberg memorial design ties directly to the ceremonial and ideological importance of the city during the era.
Se-tenant multiples like this are highly desirable, especially in longer strips rather than pairs.
The combination of infrastructure + propaganda architecture themes makes this a standout display piece.
Larger intact strips are less commonly encountered than singles or pairs.
Singles typically catalog modestly, but:
Full se-tenant strips and multiples carry strong premium value
