OFFICIAL KARTENBRIEF
15Pf DEUTSCHES REICH

RU8
OFFICIAL ROHRPOST BRIEF
35Pf DEUTSCHES REICH
Issued in 1917 due to increased postal rates, this Rohrpost envelope is easily identified as it is the only one to feature a Germania 35Pf stamp inscribed "DEUTSCHES REICH". RU8 and RU9 also occur (possibly with additional postage) in normal postal traffic, ie not transported by pneumatic tube.
