Postage Stamps used in the German Marshall Islands Yacht Issues Demand Covers Jaluit by Dirk H.R. Spennemann |
Introduction

Philatelic Covers are those which have been created by stamp dealers and collectors desireous to manufacture varieties and clever variations. The contemporary stamp press was very critical of these; and still collectors tend to regard these as less interesting than the demand items with the correct postage. |
