CORRECTIONS TO SLOGAN CANCEL ARTICLES DANZIG REPORT
The following corrections and illuminations were supplied by Herr Schüler and his friend Herr Rittmeister. Note the changes in the validity dates of some of the special cancels. Page numbers below refer to our Report pages. Thanks for the update !

PAGE 4:
Als Reiseziel / erwhl sich jeder / Danzig / und seine Ostseebader
1b ................................................................. From - 1 . 8 . 29
2a ................................................................. 13.9.29 - 7.11.30

Also, our identification of the cover at the bottom (2C) should have been “4”. Why ? Because the date is 21.5.32, not 21.5.31 ! Herr Schüler points out the second cipher in the date: no serif. The circular cancel is banged into an oval, & the 2 compressed. See their examples below & note change in size of the * and 5:
