On 22nd September I got three postcards: one from Germany and two from France.
The card from Germany is the Chronicle card of Essen. Essen already dates back to the 9th century, but it was just in the 19th century that it became of real importance as industrial centre. Today it is among the ten largest cities in Germany.
A stamp about the 150th birthday of Richard Strauss was used on the card. Back in 2014 when this one was issued it could be used to send a cover. Now it is only enough for a postcard. It got cancelled with the Covid-19 postmark from the postmarking centre 45.
Thank You very much Marcel!
