BARLOG POSTCARDS
1400 Series
The following sets of postcards were published by DRIESEN VERLAG and I have titled them series 1400, series 8500 and series 8700. They are popularly know as Barlog postcards after the artist, Ferdinand Barlog who's work is featured in them. The cards depict the humourous side of the life of a new recruit in the German army. The earliest example in my collection is a 8700 cancelled on 15th Aug 1939.
