Denmark: The Little Mermaid in Copenhagen

Today I got three postcards. One of them was my first postcard from Denmark. This week I bought a new album for bigger postcards, so now I can collect them too. The card shows the Little Mermaid in Copenhagen. The bronze is 1,25 meters high and thus the smallest town's landmark in the world. The design was made by Edvard Eriksen. The ideal for the bronze is Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale "The Little Mermaid".

With very tiny stamp:
Queen Margrethe II (issued 07-01-2013)

Thank You very much Chris!
