re: Opinion needed on German postwar issue

Finsterwalde locals were issued on Feb 16th 1946, so the dates are appropriate.
The series comprised of 12 stamps as shown here.
The Aengeneyndt & Goy did exist and other covers can be found.

Obviously the postage is far more than required so this is possibly a "souvenir" cover the dealer issued.

The blue address is the one that shows up on other covers
Individually used or mint the values are low.
Individual ones on legitimate covers command much more.
All 12 would have significant value, the question is whether it was postally used?

Bit careless, though, eh? I suspect Herr Aengeneyndt's (or Herr Goy's) six year old son created that cover as a test piece. Papa would have pointed out the 4 and the 6, and the overlapping 20, 30 and 40, and wondered whether the little one was quite ready for this sort of thing. Big Grin

" I suspect Herr Aengeneyndt's (or Herr Goy's) six year old son created that cover as a test piece. Papa would have pointed out the 4 and the 6, and the overlapping 20, 30 and 40"

Not sure how that statement adds anything to the validity of the cover.
Nothing unusual about the condition of the stamps other than detracting from the potential value.
