Third Reich Stamps and Coupons

[Scowen]

Excellent collection Ralph!

I've been thinking about getting into stamps as they are still reletively inexpensive, but I daren't get into another area.......

I've got a couple of common cheapies that came in with a deal, I'll scan them later.

Thanks for posting these, makes a nice change

Cheers

OSS Forgeries

Please excuse the poor image quality. My scanner is being testy at the moment, and my digital camera is horrid at macro work.

Perhaps I'll post some more when I can convince my scanner to play well with others. For the time being, I'll leave off with this:

Be careful. I think they're breeding.

Thanks for the link Ralph very interesting. Some nice ones you have as well Chris.

As promised, her are the only ones I have. As mentioned before, they came as part of a deal, I don't even know if they are genuine.

Cheers

Neat stamps guys. Lots of "Heroic" artwork. The unknown stamp almost looks like England next to North America. You've got a vague Hudsons Bay at the top of the landmass and a Gulf of Mexico at the bottom, minus South America, of course.Is that possible? Cheers, Chris B. ... On second thought...Nahhh.

Guys, Here are a few of the ones that I have. The Zeppellin even has a microscopic swastika on the tailfin. Also note the lower left 39 Parteitag. Great thread. I very rarely look at these. Some of the art and symbolism is incredible. Have a nice weekend. Robert

Don, You are THE MAN! Thank You. Can anybody make out the cancellation on the Zeppellin stamp?

Don, What I meant was that not only did the TR maufacture a day badge but stamps and postcards as well for an event that never occured. Makes one wonder how far in advance they were produced. The attack on Poland was pre-planned. I wonder at what date the 1939 Reichsparteitag was cancelled. At least the stamps and postcards could be used. My emphasis was on the year of the Reichsparteitag. Take Care. Robert

[Scowen]

Sorry, I thought you meant the lower left of the stamp Silly me.

A rarity. Signal Corps. One of a block of four.

Ralph,

Are the Nachrichtendienst stamps such a rarity? I have a roll of them but note that there's no swaz.

Reichswehr stamps??

Here are some of the DAK -- Tunis Packen stamps in my collection. These were used on Feldpost packages shipped by DAK men from North Afrika. They were also printed there as well, reason for the inconsistancy of the printing. Ones that have been used and that are still on the original package paper are very rare. Genuine ones are found in both perforated and without. Some may also be reproductions of this stamp and are difficult to tell. If anyone knows how, please post the details?
