Dr Schlincks Palmin has been around for over 100 years. You can still buy it today as a coconut oil or fat for cooking. These advertising stamps might suggest that it had wider uses at some stage (?). Date unknown but probably early 20th Century.

Otto Enke of Cottbus IN 1900 Otto Enke acquired a factory in Cottbus, Brandenburg, Germany. He founded a book factory with a large bookbinding shop and a printing shop. The site expanded over the years and was shared with the regional newspaper. At the end of World War II as part of the reparations under the Potsdam Conference, Germany was to pay the Allies US$23 billion mainly in machinery and manufacturing plants. This included the dismantling of the book factory in Cottbus. These advertising stamps promoted various stationery products. The factory is depicted on the last stamp.

Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646–1716) was a polymath and a philosopher, mathematician and scientist. He mastered Latin by the age of 12, enrolled at the University of Leipzig aged 14 and wrote his first book aged 19. He spent his last 40 years in Hanover. However, this is actually part of an advertising series of stamps for Leibniz biscuits produced by Bahlsen in Hanover and simply named after one of Hanover's most famous residents. Note the incorrect date of his death.

A very attractive lot of these poster stamps. Founded in 1883, they still exist today based in Tutzing. They provide healthcare, education and social services to their members.

DSF, Society for German-Soviet Friendship (Gesellschaft für Deutsch Sowjetische Freundschaft) DSF emerged from the Society for the Study of the Culture of the Soviet Union (founded in 1947) in 1949. Its aim, as the name suggests, was to promote a greater understanding of Soviet Culture in East Germany. Membership effectively became compulsory and by 1989 the Society had a membership of 6.4 million. After German Re-unification membership fell to 20,000 and it ceased to exist by 1992. This sheet is entitled Kultur Brücke der Freundschaft, Culture Bridge of Friendship. It mentions that 'If you send a postcard to your district's office by September 30, 1990, you will be a participant in a drawing'. So we can date the sheet to that year. It depicts Soviet and German architecture, art, film, newspapers and propaganda.

Pelikan Products Poster Stamps
The description in this booklet reads:
"Historical seal stamps are often collected again in the spirit of a return to old values. In this issue you will find advertising stamps that were already issued around the turn of the century. In some cases, poster designs by famous graphic artists and painters such as E W Baule, Julius Dietz,Ludwig Hohlwein, Cesar Klein, Lucian Zabel were used.
Friendly greetings. Pelican Products
Hanover 1984"
The stamps must date from around 1900. The company dates back to 1832 when the chemist Carl Hornemann began a company in Hannover making paints and inks. In 1871 Gunther Wagner took over the company and his name appears on many of theses stamps. The Pelican was his family emblem. The company has been Swiss owned, American owned and Malaysian owned. The company still exists today as Pelikan Group GmbH and is headquartered in Berlin and is a leading brand-name company of quality paper, office and stationery supplies.
