Here are some interesting labels that were included in a club auction lot that I got the other day. From what I know they are some labels that were privately printed and included images of the royal family as well as 'famous' airmen. They were intended to be affixed to free mail of service personnel.
(This my first image post so hopefully....)

Very interesting! 5 Pf is for 5 Pfennings and Prinz means Prince and Prinzessin means Princess. I have never seen them before, but they do look like the Bavarian stamps mentioned by philb.
Nice!

Those stamps are of the Bavarian Royal family if I'm not mistaken.
