NEW GUINEA COLONIAL – STAMP SET
SKU: 22-99$85.00
This is an unused 4 POSTAGE STAMP SET from Colonial German New Guinea…..
Height: in
Width: in
Length: inThis is an unused 4 POSTAGE STAMP SET from Colonial German New Guinea. The stamps depict Kaiser Wilhelm II’s royal yacht, the S.M.Y. Hohenzollern, in vivid colors. The original glue is in place on each stamp’s reverse. The set contains a five-mark stamp, a ten-pfennig stamp, a five-pfennig stamp, and a three-pfennig stamp.
It is an amazing set of very difficult-to-find stamps from Deutsch-Neuguinea, Germany’s very small colony in New Guinea. It is also interesting to note that German New Guinea actually was Imperial Germany’s very first overseas colony! These stamps date from approximately 1897 to 1914, when Australia took over the territory at the beginning of WW I.

PRUSSIA – TELEGRAMS – KAISER WILHELM II TO ARTIST FRITZ KRAUS
SKU: 12-591$95.00
This is a set of three telegrams that were sent on Kaiser Wilhelm II’s behalf to artist Fritz Kraus. Kraus was a noted sculptor in Germany during the Imperial Period. The telegrams are dated 1904 and 1905. In them the Kaiser requests that Kraus prepare busts for the Naval Academy at Kiel. [The Academy has a superlative collection of German naval artifacts unlike any other in the world. I was very fortunate to visit it within the last few years, since it is difficult to gain admission. If you are ever offered the chance to visit it–GO!] Each of the telegrams measures 8″ x 9 3/4.” They carry the full markings, stampings, and tax stamps from the German post office that was responsible for maintaining the telegraph system. Two of the three were sent by the Kaiser’s Adjutant General. They are quite interesting. They also show how important, “Rush” messages were sent in Imperial Germany.
