This is a militärpaß for a Bavarian named Wilhelm Veidt. Veidt was born in 1897. He mustered into the army on 4 April 1916. His first service was in the I. Ersatz-Bataillon of Infanterie-Regiment Nr 19. The unit was based at 1. Rekruten-Depot. He reported to the front as a member of this Bavarian regiment. He was posted to a Bavarian Flieger-Abteilung later in the war. Unit stamps appear from both regiments. The replaced cover of the militärpaß indicates that Veidt served in the army from 4 April 1916 through 17 February 1919. It is an interesting militärpaß for a Bavarian soldier/aviator.

This is an unused 4 POSTAGE STAMP SET from Colonial German New Guinea…..
This 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.

This is a militärpaß for a Bavarian soldier from a Luftschiffer Ersatz Abteilung. The man’s name was Fischer. He was born in 1898. He joined the army in 1917 and was initially assigned to a Bavarian Luftschiffer Ersatz Abteilung. The militärpaß has a flip down page where you can see his complete service for nearly two years of WW I. In addition to numerous unit stamps from his initial unit, a stamp for his assignment to Feldluftschiffer-Abteilung Nr 1 is also present. A unit stamp for a Prussian Luftschiffer-Abteilung also appears, which I find particularly interesting. The militärpaß comes in a protective jacket. It has a wealth of material to research and dig into.
