WWII German Feldpost Envelope Grouping-3 Envelopes to Same Recipient in Berlin-Military Postal Markings
Original WWII German Feldpost correspondence grouping consisting of three period envelopes, all apparently addressed to the same recipient in Berlin-Lichterfelde-West.
The envelopes are addressed to Frau Annemarie Krüger, with the address appearing as Manteuffelstraße 9, Berlin-Lichterfelde-West. Keeping these three covers together preserves the historical connection between them and makes the grouping considerably more interesting than individual loose Feldpost envelopes.
Each envelope displays period handwritten addressing along with German military postal markings. Two of the covers feature particularly attractive violet “Dienststelle Feldpostnummer” official service stamps incorporating the German eagle and swastika.
The envelopes also bear Feldpost cancellation markings, with visible dates appearing to be from 1941, placing the correspondence during the early years of World War II.

Historical Interest
The Feldpost was the German military postal system used to carry correspondence between members of the armed forces and civilians during WWII.
Military units were commonly identified by Feldpost numbers rather than ordinary civilian addresses, allowing mail to reach servicemen and military offices without openly revealing unit locations.
These envelopes are particularly appealing because they remain together as a three-piece grouping addressed to one woman in Berlin, providing a more personal connection to wartime life than an unrelated assortment of covers.
The official military cachets, wartime postal cancellations and handwritten addresses make this a very displayable group for collectors of German Feldpost, WWII postal history, military correspondence and Third Reich-era documents.
Condition
Good original wartime condition with expected age toning, edge and corner wear, light staining, handling marks and minor creasing. One cover shows slightly heavier age and edge wear than the others.
The Feldpost cancellations, handwritten addresses and official military stamps remain clearly visible.
The envelopes appear to be empty, with no letters shown or included.
Please examine all photographs carefully as they are part of the description.
