floortrader, another beautiful page. I have a couple questions. I assume you're pulling the stamps from stock you picked up from auction. Do you generate the pages as you need them or had you printed them previously? And, based on my own experience, you must spend a great deal of time each day with your collection. You have a dedication I find hard to match. From one collector to another, you have a fine collection!

Hi floortrader,

Thanks for sharing so many pages from your collection.

I enjoyed seeing your Hansa stamps. I only have a small number of the German local issues but I do have an old Michel catalogue and I thought you might be interested in their identification.

These particular stamps were issued by seven different companies/cities:

Row 1:

Stettin B - Mi 7
Breslau E - Mi 9
Breslau E - Mi 11
Breslau E - Mi 8

Row 2:

Mannheim B - Mi 1
Königsberg - Mi 6

Row 3:

Dresden C - Mi 96
Posen - Mi 12
Posen - Mi 8

Row 4:

Lübeck B - Mi 5
Königsberg - Mi 3

The above are my best guesses but there are some plate differences listed and I've ignored shades.

When several companies issued local stamps in the same city Michel labels catalogues these as "city name" + A, B, C etc.

The companies represented here are:

Stettin B - Privatstadtbrief-Beförderung HANSA
Breslau E - Privat-Stadtbrief-Beförderung HANSA
Mannheim B - HANSA Privatpost für Stadtbriefe
Königsberg - HANSA
Dresden C - Dresdner Verkehrs-Anstalt HANSA
Posen - HANSA
Lübeck B - HANSA

Some of these cities now lie outside Germany:

Stettin is now Szczecin in Poland.
Breslau is now Wroclaw in Poland.
Königsberg is now Kaliningrad in Russia.
Posen is now Poznan is Poland.
