GET TO KNOW GERMANY
FRIEDRICH EBERT SECOND SERIES
P188

The Second Ebert series of postcards appeared in 1929 and are refered to as P188 in the Michel series. This series comprises a total of 10 different cards. Cards of the second Ebert series differ from the first series by (1) a border that now extends around the four edges of the card, (2) a shorter tailed 'e' of 'Postkarte', (3) a different design to the central diving line which is now the same design as the outer border. Like the first series these cards depict scenes from around Germany on the left upper pane but do not have the 'Lernt Deutschland Kennen!' title.

As well as the official cards there are several versions of P188 with additional private printing.

Postcard P188/10 bears the inscription "Ostseebad Warnemünde" - 'Baltic Sea resort of Warnemünde' and features a view of the Bismarck Promenade taken from the lighthouse. The large white building in the foreground is the Hotel Pavillon.
