Item Description

Germany, 1942, PROTECTORATE OF BOHEMIA AND MORAVIA, Hitler with revolutionary overprint, green, 5 K, Mi DE-BM c#104. Price is for stamp with overprint. It is lower in the catalog without the overprint.

It was May 5, 1945, an uprising broke out in Prague against the Germans who were occupying Czech and Moravia There was fighting in the streets. Postmen with captured weapons defended their post office and the post office was busy, part of the post office functioned as an infirmary. The postmaster connected telephone calls from different parts of the battlefield in the city. At the same time, he was already minting a revolutionary overprint on old German stamps with Hitler. The post office had to be prepared for political changes and did not have new stamps.
The stamps with the revolutionary overprint only worked for a few months before the new government had new ones printed. So the grades are exceptional.

Overprint Translation:
Czechoslovakia
