This blog started on 17.08.2019,  3 years later on 24.08.2022 the blog reached 10.000 visits. 

Today 21.03.2024 we reached 20.000 visits. Thanks to everyone who has visited this blog.

I'm posting today two interesting items,  though not a feldpost.



26.06.1942  card from Sarajevo to Bystricem pod Hostynem , Protektorat Morava, today Czech republic. Wehrmacht censorship.

Intersting is rare purple cancel in Croatian: "Čuvajte se pjegavca - Čistoća čuva život" or "Beware of typhus - Cleanness(hygiene) saves life"




01.04.1942 letter from Zagreb to Belgrade, Serbia. During WWII there was no postal service beetween Croatia and Serbia, written contact with people on the other side was possible through the International Red Cross. This letter has red cancel "Croatian Red Cross, main office Zagreb", at the back is the Wehrmacht censorship tape. There are contents in the cover but censor (green)numbers on the cover and paper are not the same, therefore the contents are not from this letter.
