Postage Stamps used in the German Marshall Islands Postal Stationery -- Vorläufer by Dirk H.R. Spennemann |
Vorläufer postal Stationery used in the Marshall Islands is not very common. Where such items exist, they have been illustrated under the relevant Stationery type. To illustrate this section it was necessary to draw on normal, cancelled German Reichs Stationery. As the opportunity arises, these images will be replaced by images of mint Stationery. |
