1928 German Panzer Verlag Nürnberg Cover Envelope Knight w Helmet in Armor

Original 1928 German commercial advertising cover from Panzer Verlag of Nürnberg (Nuremberg), featuring an especially attractive printed company logo and a large Albrecht Dürer commemorative postal slogan cancellation.

The envelope was produced for:

Panzer Verlag – Nürnberg
Flaschenhofstraße 14
Telephone 27190
Postscheckkonto Nürnberg Nr. 14660

The striking publisher’s logo incorporates the “Panzer” name with a stylized armored/helmeted figure, giving the cover excellent visual appeal.

Across the top is a large repeating Nürnberg machine cancellation reading:

“DAS DÜRERJAHR – NÜRNBERG – 1928”

Translation:

“The Dürer Year – Nuremberg – 1928.”

The postmark is clearly dated 28.6.28, or June 28, 1928, and commemorates the 400th anniversary year of the death of Albrecht Dürer, the famous German Renaissance artist who was closely associated with Nuremberg.

The cover retains its original 8 Pfennig Deutsches Reich postage stamp, tied by the Nürnberg cancellation.

The envelope was addressed to the:

“Finanzamt” — Tax Office

with the destination handwritten as Kirchenberg followed by an abbreviated regional designation.

There is also a purple manuscript/office marking across the upper cancellation area, adding to the cover’s original period-used character.

This is a particularly attractive Weimar Republic-era German postal history cover, combining a commercial publisher advertising envelope, Nürnberg postal history, an 8 Pfennig stamp and the highly collectible 1928 Dürerjahr commemorative slogan cancel.

Condition: Original postal-used condition with substantial age toning, scattered spotting/soiling, handling wear, creases and edge/corner wear as shown. The stamp remains attached and the large Dürerjahr machine cancellation displays very well. Please examine all photographs carefully for exact condition.

You will receive the exact original cover shown.
