Mint Czechoslovakia PPC Postcard Georgi Dimitrov on Trial for Reichstag Fire

Up for auction is a beautiful lithograph picture postcard cover from Czechoslovakia . Beautiful stamp and cancels. Unposted mint. In excellent condition . Priced to sell. Postcard depicts Bulgarian communist leader and activist Georgi Dimitrov when he was falsely accused and put on trial for allegedly setting the German Reichstag on fire (the excuse used by the Nazi party to suspend civil liberties in Germany). Dimitrov defended himself because no lawyers would defend him. He won an acquittal. Hard to quantify what constitutes "trial of the century" in a century that had a lot of famous trials but in terms of national and international consequences, this was probably it.Printed in PRague. It is not dated but appears to be pre war because it does not refer to him as president.Very scarce communist political postcard.
