THIRD REICH AIR MINISTRY ENVELOPE |
 |
REICHSLUFTFAHRTMINISTERIUM
|
| This is a very interesting 6-1/4 x 8 inch tan envelope sent by registered mail on 8 June 1942 through the German Service Post System in Prag (Praha, Prague) in the German Protectorate of Böhmen und Mähren (Bohemia and Moravia) in the former country of Czechoslovakia. Please note that destination to which the envelope was sent contains no street address or city, but is entirely in service code (GL 1 VI RVL). |
Coincidentally, SS General and Chief of the Sicherheitsdienst (SD) Reinhard Heydrich died of an assassin's wound in Prag on 4 June and was being buried in Berlin on 9 June 1942 when this letter arrived.
The envelope is opened along the bottom and right edge. Very good condition.
