This is a very large and ornate monument of Kaiser Wilhelm I, located in Hildesheim. The monument shows Kaiser Wilhelm I mounted on a horse, wearing the helmet and uniform of the Regiment der Garde du Corps. In his right hand he holds a Generalfeldmarschall’s baton. Below him, standing on the ground, is Germania, the mythical patron and protector of Germany against France. She holds high in her left hand Germany’s crown. Under Wilhelm’s foot is a dragon that he has slain, much like Saint George or the Archangel Michael. The postcard just oozes symbolism and the might of Germany’s first Kaiser. On the postcard’s reverse is a written message. The postcard was mailed in August 1907.

This interesting postcard shows Prussia’s famous King Frederick the Great (1712-1786) standing on the rear steps of legendary castle Sanssouci, which he built during his reign (1740-1786). The castle remains open in Potsdam today. It is one of the most impressive and beautiful in all Germany. Friedrich is flanked by two of his beloved dogs. Below him is the caption “Der alte Fritz in Sanssouci.” The postcard was mailed from Potsdam in 1938. Its postage stamp bears the image of the by-then-defunct Weimar Republic’s late President, Generalfeldmarschall Paul von Hindenburg, who had died in 1934.
