    FAKE ink stamped letters, or?

    The seller lynne19521956 on eBay has many "RRRRare" postcards with suspicious ink stamps:

    This one is ink stamped "NSDAP Berlin" that uses the font "Old English" that Monotype/Letraset released around 1990. What's the chance for the NSDAP to have used that font?

    Another suspicious "NSDAP" ink stamp:

    Suspicious "SS" ink stamps:

    Seller privatecollections_ca has letters and a postcard with suspicious "SS Totenkopfstandarte KL Dachau" ink stamps:

    This letter was sent from Sachsen to Thüringen, nowhere near Dachau:

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/323163015122

    This letter has the Feldpostnummer 13482 B, which should be Infanterie-Regiment 76 based in Hamburg, and it also has the same "KL Dachau" ink stamp:

    Postcard with the same ink stamp:

    These cards and letters must have been "embellished", or am I missing something? The ink stamps make no sense to me.

    Just somebody trying to squeeze extra $$$ out of normal Feldpost. A dirtbag, so to speak.

      Hi,

      lynne19521956 is SERVED !

      Please note that i only took the confirmed fake stamps from the first 6 months sales of 2018, some other stamps exist, including an ugly RZM stamp, but the pictures i have are not that great so a few ones were left out from my study.

      lynne19521956 updated over the years the stamps used to pimp original German documents, you will find that some are from an older generation than others.

      The PDF attached at the bottom of this post is including a far better resolution picture than the one posted below.

      See You

        There are hunders of original items with fake "nazi" stamps listed every week on eBay. Postcards, envelopes, documents, paper money. The fakers take usually very cheap ones, which without this manipulation stamp can not be sold even for 1 $ each.

        regards

          The stamps shown are obvious fakes. Where the true problem arises is that with today's technology, someone can bring a scan of an original document, with an original stamp, to any business supply store and they can make an exact physical copy for a few dollars. You can then upgrade documents to your hearts content.

            I Agree: today it is very easy and very cheap to make a “dedicated” stamp

            The approssimate and rough fakes stamps above do not make big damage .... the problem are the competent falsifiers and when the make a correct stamp to put it in the right place...
