GERMANY ~ Fix & Foxi cartoon ~

... A cute looking German cartoon postcard... the most successful and best-selling German comic series of all time... it's about two charming foxes Fix & Foxi who with their friend Lupo are always getting into crazy adventures but they stick together through thick and thin... Fix & Foxi is now a multimedia property.... with sweet matching stamp showing the comic foxes on skateboards and special great postmark to celebrate the 100th birthday of their creator... Thanks a lot Dustin for once more an unique item!! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


The publisher Rolf Kauka (1917-2000) was the creator and active marketer of the fox twins as well as the entire comic family.

The weekly magazine was published for more than 40 years between 1953 and 1994. Re-christened Fix & Foxi, it was relaunched as a monthly magazine in 2000, 2005 and 2010 respectively. Since the end of 2010 publication has once again ceased.

A total of over 750 million comic books were sold internationally.

In 2000 a TV series was broadcast featuring the characters; it was planned by the late Rolf Kauka and found it's way even into other European countries.
