I was today years old when I learned that "The Jungfrau," as this stamps is captioned in the Scott Catalogue, refers not to "the maiden" in the foreground, but to the mountain peak in the background. The young lady would, of course, be Helvetia.

That is a beautiful set. That's the 183 from 1930 with a CV of $275...nice!. The others in the set are two other Swiss peaks, The Rutili and The Mythen

It is a sweet looking set. Too bad that’s not my stamp.
