Original 1923 German inflation-era postal card with an impressive multiple franking of ten 30 Mark Deutsches Reich stamps, plus an additional 100 Mark stamp, creating a highly visual 400 Mark total franking from the turbulent German inflation period.

The card is addressed to Firma Oskar Fröb, Pappenfabrik (cardboard factory), Wurzbach, Reuss and bears multiple circular postal cancellations dated August 1923. The large block of 30 Mark stamps dominates the front and makes this an especially attractive piece of Weimar Republic inflation postal history.

The reverse contains a typewritten commercial message dated Hannover, 18 August 1923. It thanks the recipient for postal checking-account transfers and discusses earlier deliveries, a film factory, and a request from Telefonfabrik A.G., Hannover for a written quotation involving 50 boxes/cartons each in three different sizes.

Approximate translation of the main message:

“Hanover, 18 August 1923. Many thanks for the postal checking-account transfers of the 6th and 14th of this month. The transfer of the 6th, however, bears a postal cancellation of 13/8. Because of earlier deliveries to the film factory, I am still awaiting your reply. Telefonfabrik A.G., Hanover, requests a written quotation for 50 boxes each, as previously supplied, in the three sizes 42/30/32, 42/30/25 and 36/25/28 cm. Please reply very soon! Respectfully!”

This is an excellent example of German hyperinflation-era commercial correspondence, combining a dramatic multiple-stamp franking with surviving business content that provides a glimpse into German industrial commerce during 1923.

Condition: Original used condition with substantial period wear, including toning, creasing/folds, edge wear, small losses and punched/notched areas along the edges. Stamps and cancellations show wear consistent with postal use. Please examine all photos carefully for exact condition.
