Hello All,
I have a question about the dates when several German semi-postal stamps were issued in the 1940's. Scott's doesn't have the exact date for the following stamps:
B278-B279 1944 7th National Shooting Matches
B280 1944 Albert University
B281-B282 1944 Reich Labor Service
and
B284-B285 1944 Vienna Grand Prize Race

I know they were issue in July to August of 1944, but not the day. I have them on cover with "commemorative" postmarks, but wondering if they are first day covers or not. Does anyone have a Michel or other catalog with better information?
Thanks,
Will

If I'm reading Michel right, July 2 for the University and Shooting match issues. No specific date for the others. June for the workers, August for the Vienna race.
