On 11th May I got two covers from Germany.
Both covers I had sent to myself to get a special postmark about the 500th anniversary of the Diet of Worms, one of the most famous events within the Lutheran Reformation when Martin Luther refused to withdraw his theses. Unfortunately no stamp was issued for this jubilee, but a prepaid cover was issued instead. I got this postmark once on the special cover and once on a normal cover. If you want to know more about the Reformation go to my history blog. Back in 2017 I wrote some posts about it there, which I later merged into two posts. Just search for "Luther" and you will easily find them.
