Hi and thanks Nigel and Thomas,

Yes I missed in the translation they were looking for a credit; I wonder if they got it? They would have to pay in DM and not RM.
Both organisations lucky to still be working after so much damage to Hamburg and Osnabruck, look how many new building in central districts.

The Reich Post in 1944 and 1945 did a fantastic job just to keep operating, under such terrible conditions. It was a very well and efficient organisation.
Neu marken 21.4.1945 incredible; not many postampt recieved these!

Thanks again for your help, dieser karten ist besse als brief.

Regards
Tony

Hi Alec and all,

Thanks for the comments, I find it best to use German and English mixed. With English now official of Europa C.C. I guess many of you can at least read English, if Old English words are used instead of Latin based it seems easier for you. I guess the old Niederdeutsche language is disppearing?

My main comments was why no stamps [marken] used in Osnabruck?

Rechnung von 1944 asking for payment ende 1945 is interesting, looking for money after over 1 year and ende of krieg also.

When was the change made from RM [Reichmark] to DM, and was there any change in value?

I will scan image [2] if anone interested. Under bildergalerie.

Regards
Tony

Hello Rondo and Christoph,

Vielen dank fur information.

Rondo:
I see Spitalerstr, in Hamburg, near Hauptbahnhof.
Bureau only?
Atlantic Oel fabrik near the hafen in 1945?
Ist da in 2008 Atlantic Oel?

Christoph:
A lot of buchen in webseiten, will take me a long time to read.

I could not see any reference in liste to Osnabruck, Am u. Br Zone marken from Juli 1945, so Osnabruck postampt haben deiser marken?

I think that by Okt 1945 "Gebuhr bezahlt" stempel fur Gesellschaft "bulk" [Umfang] post only.

Sommer hier und warm, mit 42 mm rehn in ein stunde, mittag essen.

Lars,

Many thanks, these two books look good.

I have a few Kopf mit Aufdruck and want to find postampt oder stadt, in Michel liste, I have some pruffen.

Band 1, does this answer the 1941-1944 changes in color? Or problems in 1944 with print ink u.s.w?

Hi,

I am Tony Burgess living in Australia; I can read some German, but sending email is harder.

Looking at copies of Mi 782 3 [pfg] is there 2 shades, by 1944 the brown is lighter [more yellow]

Also 795x and 795y how can I find the differnce, is it the colour?

I also have problem with Mi 781a and 781b, [a] is slightly darker, I have 20 copies all look the same.

Also what was the date of issue of 781b, 784b, 785b, 799 bis 802b

I am also interested in the many Kopf mit aufdruck in 1945, does anyone have a list of the private, not in Michel

Regards
Tony
