I always try and avoid making posts here because I like doing the research and finding things on my own. However some things I just cant seem to get anywhere no matter how much time I spend going down the rabbit hole.

I have some German Local stamps that I think date around 1945-1955ish. However I cannot find any information on years they were issued, value, production numbers, etc.

So I post to the stamp gods here.

I guess what I do know is that the one's marked "gerichtskosten marke" means COURT COST STAMP.

I have seen one example of the first two stamps listed on ebay and labeled as from 1928 , however the stamps were labeled Pruezen and not Hessen and Land Berlin. I don't know if 1928 was the only year they were issued, or what I should value the stamps as.

For the private local post stamps you will need the catalog shown in this link:

(not so easy to find)

The other stamps you show are revenues. They would be listed in a separate set of catalogs.

Ive already spent way too much money buying a complete scott catalog for US and World, and then even more on a US specialized catalog. There is no way I am spending any more money on a MIchel catalog just to look up a few german local stamps. So if anyone here owns the catalog and can look them up for me, it would be super appreciated :)
