tom63 Posted December 11, 2022 Share #1 Posted December 11, 2022 I bought this lot of postcards at a local swap meet. Can anyone tell me anything about them ; subject, region, etc? Not being able to read German (or ?), the only thing I can make out is some of the dates, 1943. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud Kraut Posted December 11, 2022 Share #2 Posted December 11, 2022 The writing is German, the postcards and stamps are obviously not (maybe a POW?). Please post a close-up of front and back of one postcard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom63 Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share #3 Posted December 12, 2022 Hi PK, These are the best closeups I have. I lent the postcards to a friend who had a friend who she thought could read them. That was about a year ago 😟. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proud Kraut Posted December 13, 2022 Share #4 Posted December 13, 2022 Looks like the postcards and stamps are Bulgarian. Bulgaria was a German ally until 1944. I can´t decipher the writing completely. No military content as far as I can see. I can´t find any pointer to the sender´s name. It reads like a person (male or female) telling about his/her live together with other people, foods, health etc. Some more close-ups would be helpfull.

tom63 Posted December 14, 2022 Author Share #5 Posted December 14, 2022 PK, Thanks once again for the info. If the postcards are just about regular day to day stuff and not military related then I won't feel too bad if I don't get them back. Most of them did have an eagle and swastika postmark stamp which attracted my attention in the first place. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
