Kyffhauser dues receipt....

[Mike Dunn]

Received three of these--all different. I believe that they are Kyffhauser dues receipts. Appears to be a quarterly payment. I was wondering if these were for WWI veterans as it has the Imperial EK on the top and a Thrid Reich ink stamp on the bottom. Small in size 4 x 5 3/4 inches. Dated 1944, first quarter and the dues were 1 Reichs Mark 75 pf. First I have see of these--Mike

Yup, you're absolutely right about what it is. I've never seen any either-- this is the sort of thing (like our old utility bills etc etc) that just don't get saved... and so though quite ordinary are... quite rare.
