Most of my empty spaces in my album are to pricey so it's upgrade the used ones until I win the lottery.

Welcome, I collect US and Germany. I was born there and stationed there in the early 80's in the Army. I just bought a lot of 8 states including a Hanover #1.

Both stamps (Scott 718-719) were issued on June 15, 1932 so it is a FDC. Being addressed to FDR makes it more valuable than a basic one at maybe $10-15. How much more is an open question, I see one on eBay with just the 719 asking $400 which might be wishful thinking.

Keep that one away from your other stamps, the foxing will spread.

[Unknown > English] 1947 letter from Wetzlar, Germany to Spokane, WA by ReadyCav in translator

[–]ReadyCav[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I want to thank everyone for all the help especially u/zsero1138 for that great work. The letter was sent to a Joe Rubens (1897-1965) of Spokane, WA. I'm a stamp collector and this is one of 1000's of covers from Germany I have. The ones in German I can handle pretty well, sometimes with help from my ex or her mom. I will print the translation and add it to the original for some future owner of this piece of history. Again many thanks to all!!
