Authentic WWII German Feldpost Collection – Same Soldier & Family Original group of six (6) wartime letters with matching envelopes, all mailed to the Zimmer family of Wuppertal, Germany between 1942 and 1945. Every envelope retains original postal markings, stamps, and German Feldpost censor handstamps. All six are from the same soldier correspondent, offering a continuous personal narrative. Notable Features Postal Markings & Stamps Red 12 Pf “Hitler head” definitives on several covers. Blue “Luftfeldpost” airmail stamps on others. Distinct Feldpost eagle/swastika unit and censor cancels, many fully legible with dates such as 14.4.43, 29.8.44, and 13.1.45. Handwritten Letters All pages in period German Kurrent/Sütterlin script, some written cross-wise to save paper. Ink colors vary—black, purple, and pencil—adding visual character. Partial English Translation Highlights (Selections from the most readable passages; spelling modernized) “Liebe Eltern, ich bin gesund und hoffe, dass es Euch ebenso gut geht.” → “Dear Parents, I am well and hope you are the same.” “Ich freue mich auf den Tag, an dem wir uns wiedersehen.” → “I look forward to the day we see each other again.” Mentions of cold weather, daily duties, and long marches, plus thanks for parcels from home. References to mail delays and hopes for peace, but nothing political or graphic. These excerpts capture the human side of wartime correspondence without altering the original context. Condition Typical age wear: fold lines, small edge tears, and light toning. Handwriting remains strong and legible; all envelopes complete.
