    Looks like a "First Day Cover" for the inauguration (Amtsantritt) of the Nazi General Government in in occupied Krakow, Poland. The General Government territory was an administrative region of the Reich.

    Interestingly, the address in the US - Newark, Delaware is right next to the University of Delaware. Images on Google.

    (A First Day Cover is an envelope or card bearing a stamp which is cancelled on the day the stamp is initially placed on sale by the postal authorities.)

    Thanks to you both. I still have not found a translation.

    Cheers!

    "Amtsantritt des Generalgouveneurs für die besetzen polnischen Gebiete."

    Translation -

    Inauguration of the General Government for the Occupied Polish Territories.

    Krakau is the German spelling of the Polish city of Krakow (also sometimes spelled Cracow in English)
