Tram mail in Hamburg

Back!

This is a coloured postcard of the sailing-boat harbour. It has a 5  rpf (SG370) stamp only, and a thick-lettered ringed Porto in black, with a blue- pencil '10'. It is addressed to Wiesbaden. The cancel is HAMBURG / 1 / 14.3.24.  12.00  N / EILB... [N stands for 'Nachmittags', ie p.m.]. The tram box cancel is larger and untidier (53 x 12 mm), in black ink, still in gothic type with the = and the decorative ß.
