Deutsches Reich Mi 26 (7 Kr) -- no forgeries listed in the GPS Forgery Manual. Almost certainly genuine.
Deutsches Reich Mi 30 (9 Kr) -- no forgeries listed in the GPS Forgery Manual. Almost certainly genuine.
Deutsches Reich Mi 37 (2 M) -- no forgeries listed in the GPS Forgery Manual. Almost certainly genuine. There's almost no way to know whether it's an a, b, or c without sending it to an expert. Judging by catalog value, more than likely an a or b.
Württemberg Mi 36 (1 Kr) -- only forgery listed is an imperf, so almost certainly genuine. Can't speak to the cancel, as they are commonly forged and German States are outside my area of expertise.
Württemberg Mi 37 (2 Kr) -- no forgeries listed in the GPS Forgery Manual. Almost certainly genuine. Again can't speak to the cancel. |

Thank you everybody so far, Just two weeks ago I became the owner of a box of basically all old German stamps.(Auction) From German States, the Empire and up trough the Third Reich, Now I'm working with the Michel in one hand, the Scott in the other, sorting through the box. There are whole sheets of Hindenburg, Hitler, Flugpost, and too much more to mention. My guess is that I will have quite a few questions in the next few weeks. Again, thanks....Pete |

If you have any complete, intact sheets, I'd be interested in seeing them.
Ask away on any German questions. The States are before by time, but the rest are in my wheelhouse. |

They have all been scanned. There are about 25 sheets plus 4 or 5 that were separated in half at the perforation. Some are oversize, Flugpost, higher head values and Germania. I also have the special Hindenburg and Hitler "Elferstreifen", officially defaced Hitler heads, the special block of 4 Hitler heads with surcharge, issued at the NSDAP convention in Nürnberg, My intend is to sell all and more of this material, since I don't have a personal interest in the subject. (born 1945 in Germany) Let me know the best way to make them available for your viewing. Pete |
