Postage Stamps: German Empire & Third Reich (1872–1945)

Welcome to our category for postage stamps of the German Reich from 1872 to 1945! Few collecting areas reflect the turbulent course of German history as vividly as these 73 years: from the classic Eagle Shields (Brustschild) and Germania issues of the German Empire, through the astronomical denominations of the 1923 Hyperinflation and the celebrated charity and Zeppelin sets of the Weimar Republic, to the issues of 1933–1945.
At NOBIS24.com, you will discover guaranteed originals for your Germany collection—including mint never hinged sets, finely cancelled singles, sought-after souvenir sheets, and postally used commercial and special covers.
