Good to know, thanks. My Great Uncle gave me two albums of ancient German stamps when I was a kid. Had some real scary stuff on 'em, like little chaps with moustaches, and crooked crosses... You've inspired me to dig them out and see if there are any nicer kdF-related stamps amongst em ;)

My dad is a stamp collector and is always on the lookout for VW stamps.
He picked up a few sets of these for me a while back, but I only need one set for my collection which includes the 1938 auto show stamps and the Duhomy post office bus stamps..

In case other VW stamp collectors are interested in adding to their collections....
