WW2 Nazi German Third Reich Steel Helmet Bayonet WHW KdF Propaganda Postcard 1940

Original German “Tag der Briefmarke 1940” (Day of the Stamp 1940) commemorative postal card dated 7 January 1940.

The card was produced in connection with the KdF-Sammlergruppen (Kraft durch Freude collector groups) and features an especially attractive philatelic design. The illustration incorporates a postage-stamp motif, German steel helmet and sword with WHW lettering, along with a swastika emblem below.

The upper right features a printed 6 Reichspfennig Deutsches Reich postal indicium, making this a period postal stationery card rather than simply an illustrated postcard.

Printed text includes:

• “Tag der Briefmarke 1940” — “Day of the Stamp 1940”
• “KdF-Sammlergruppen” — “KdF Collector Groups”
• “7. Januar 1940” — January 7, 1940
• “Postkarte” — Postcard

The card appears unused and unaddressed, preserving the clean original design. A desirable piece for collectors of German postal history, WHW material, KdF memorabilia and Third Reich philately.

Condition: Very good original condition for its age with light toning, minor spotting/handling wear and other normal signs of age. Please see photographs for exact condition.
