A two-year suspension in INFLA expertisation by Dr Oechsner
10.12.2013
Due to the large number of items sent for expertisation and the resulting overload of his inspection office, Dr Oechsner has no option but to suspend inflation expertisation (German Reich Michel Nos. 98 – 337, Officials 16 – 98, as well as official control overprints) for a period of two years from 1 January 2014.
We request, with immediate effect, that no more stamps and covers of the inflation period are sent for expertising. The items from the mentioned areas that Dr Oechsner already has for expertising will be dealt with.
For INFLA expertisation please contact the BPP expertisers Bauer, Fleiner, Meyer, Tworek, Weinbuch or Winkler.
The other expertising areas of Dr Oechsner (German Reich 1900-18 and 1924-45 as well as Danzig) will be continued by him.
