    THIRD REICH GERMANY STAMP BLOCK ISSUE OVERPRINTED MAY 1945 IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA
    Here I offer more from the collection I've been listing (And selling)  on my other ID  dirk12955
    Sc513 is a 1941 Third Reich Germany issue stamp block that has been overprinted in May 1945    It is I believe counter
    stamped in the town of Mimon.    Population today less than 7,000
    #7210 is unused,   fully gummed,  and is not hinged.        It is not signed.
    When the small towns and cities of Czechoslovakia were liberated at the end of WWII,   During the first
    week of May, a decision needed to be made as to how to supply the population with usable postage stamps
    for their mail.   A system was put into place where the local postmaster would counter stamp the postage
    covering the portrait of Hitler or whatever else was on a stamp so it could be used.    This system was in
    place for a few short weeks until the New Czech Republic could issue postage of their own.
    I'm unable to locate a Michel specialized catalog to help me identify these counter stamps.   I'm using a variety
    of methods including ebay listings,   information from several collectors,   The labeling system in the
    very old album that these stamp were in.
    EVERYTHING I OFFER IS GUARANTEED BY ME!
