1941 The Victory Is With Our Flags Smoke Screening Unit
Lot 207
Michel P243/05 cancelled to order 20 April 1941, the first day of issue, in Strassburg (Els). This card is one of the commemorative set „Mit unseren Fahnen ist der Sieg!“ (The Victory Is With Our Flags) issued for Hitler’s 52"d Birthday.
The special cancellation reflects the publicity show sponsored by the KdF Stamp Collectors Club.
The ancient city of Strassburg (Strasbourg in French) was originally a Celtic village, then a Roman garrison town called Argentoratum. In the Franco-German War (1870-71) the Germans captured the city after a 50-day siege and annexed it. Strassburg reverted to France after World War 1.
It was occupied by Germany again in June 1940 and remained under German control until November 1944.
