INTRODUCTION:
The study of the various postmarks and cancellations used in 1923 is a difficult one due to the limited information available. Fortunately we have the BOCHMANN catalogue to assist in identifying most of them. Whilst the catalogue covers the vast majority of special cancellations, and is a required source for this area of study, the information provided is limited and does not put the various postmarks and cancellations into context. The Bochmann catalogue forms the basis of this page but I have provided additional information where possible. My apologies now for any errors and the inevitable ommisions.

This special handstamp was used to commemorate the 29th German Philatelist's Day. The inscription reads "29 PHILATELISTENTAG 1923 | DRESDEN" and was used from 27th to 30th Jul 1923.
