WWII Nazi German Third Reich Wedding Card & Cover Hitler 4pf Stamp 1940s Postal History

Original WWII-era German wedding congratulations card with its original mailed envelope, an attractive piece of Third Reich civilian postal history.

The front has a simple Art Deco-style geometric design with gold-colored lettering and floral decoration. The German inscription reads:

“Herzlichen Glückwunsch zur Vermählung”

Translation: “Heartfelt congratulations on your marriage.”

The accompanying envelope is addressed:

Brautpaar Kurt Wild
Großheirat 6, Ob.

“Brautpaar” translates to “bridal couple” or “newlywed couple.”

The envelope retains its original 4 Pfennig Deutsches Reich Adolf Hitler definitive stamp, tied by a circular German postal cancellation. The stamp and cancellation make this a particularly nice crossover item for collectors of WWII German postal history and Third Reich philately.

The combination of the original wedding card and its matching period-used envelope provides an interesting glimpse into everyday civilian life and correspondence in wartime Germany.

Condition: Original used condition with expected age toning, light staining/soiling, edge and corner wear, and general handling consistent with age. The gold lettering on the card remains attractive. Please examine the photographs carefully for exact condition.
