(esc-bdph) It is a good tradition for Deutsche Post to issue its own postal stationery for philatelic events. Two postal stationery items will be issued for IBRA. The first shows the IBRA stamp at 85 cents and thus domestic postage. The corresponding cachet shows the halls of Messe Essen, which fits perfectly with the corresponding special postmark. The second bears the special stamp “Zeche Zollverein” at 110 cents and thus the international postage. As expected, the cachet here shows a picture of the colliery, which again goes very well with one of the special postmarks.

The postal stationery will be issued on 4 May 2023, for which Deutsche Post is issuing a special first-use day cancel.
