And page 2: As you can see, I still have a ways to go on this page... I usually try to fill a space when I get the opportunity, but also keep my eye open for upgrading to a better example when I can, such as better centering and/or better (lighter or CDS) cancel.

I'm guessing this is Mi 112b? the only difference I see is green and darker green (?) (I do not have Michel for Germany... but that seems to be a more commonly used reference.... ah yes....another catalogue.... soon they shall out number my album pages....)  |

Hi Stanley (@ stainlessb ) - here is the relevant snip of the Michel Germany book for the above. From that it would appear yours is indeed the Mi 112b...  |

More mail from Carl Seeg for Family Wilhelm Seeg in Pforzheim. I've seen a bunch the past few months; different sellers.
These two sent from New York look normal enough on the fronts. It's the reverses that hooked me. They're censored, but this was 1940-41; Germany was still at peace with America. I didn't know that happened.
No less curious, judging from the censor's tape, the censored letters were steamed open at their bottom flap. That's laborious, patient; highest quality censorship! And to make 'em just that much odder, Family Seeg opened their mail along the bottom fold, very neatly. Somebody was a serious collector.

@kasyik, censorship was introduced with the start of the war on September 1, 1939. You have some general information:   The 2 envelopes were censored in ABP Frankfurt. |
