Lot #564
GERMANY Semi-Postals
1945 NSKK/NSFK prepared but unissued set of two in dark rose red, perforated and affixed on gray cards as always, v.f., signed Schwenn, with his 1964 certificate. A great rarity from Germany (The two stamps were planned for May 1945 and were printed at the government printing offices in Vienna, but they were never delivered to the postal service in Berlin, due to the collapse and surrender of the German Third Reich. The stamps were to have commemorated the Motor Corps (NSKK) and the Flying Corps (NSFK). Some of these stamps were discovered by Allied forces in Vienna after the end of World War II and were all destroyed. A few loose stamps from the cartons did escape destruction, probably via the pockets of Allied soldiers returning home after the war, and they are prized philatelic rarities today)
