Hi everyone!
Just thought I would share these stamps I recently obtained.
First 2 are the First Anniversary of The Deputy Reich Protector Reinhard Heydrich's death. No more stamps were made in the Protectorate to commemorate Heydrich's death.
Second lot are the 3rd Anniversary stamps also from the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia commemorating the 3rd Anniversary of German Occupation. These are actually stamps that were stamped with the day they marched into the Protektorate and the date in 1942.
Third set are from General Government formerly Poland. These ones actually have the Eagle and Swastika embossed in the centre of the stamp. I tried many many times to get a photo of the swastika and the eagle but unfortunately I couldn't. i'll give it another try later on if people would like to see it. These stamps feature significant buildings in Generalgouvernement/Poland.
Krakauer Tor, Lublin
Tuchhalle, Krakau (Kraków)
Verwaltungsgebäude, Radom
Brühlsches Palais, Warschau (Warszawa)
Rathaus, Lemberg (Lwów)
Lastly is a 1941-1942 definitive set from Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia. The last 5 feature:
St Vitus Cathedral Prague (Katedrála svatého Víta, Praha)
St Barbara's Church, Kuttenberg (Chrám svaté Barbory, Kutná Hora)
Pernstein (Pernštejn)
Pardubice Castle (Pardubice)
Brno Cathedral and Museum (Katedrála sv. Petra a Pavla v Brnê)
Ps. Please do not "steal" these pics without asking me!
Cheers
Eva
