Johann Sebastian Bach on Stamps from Eastern Europe
The speciality coming with this Bach stamp? The spelling of the last name. No mistake – for the reason that Bach sounds like it is supposed to sound, you have to write Bach that way. Written Bah, it sound correct, when an Albanian reads the word: So: no spelling mistake.

Bach is probably never mentioned smaller on a Bach stamp. However, what you see here on this website is much larger as on the stamp as an original. Very close to the large "30" there are the four letters, which specify one of the greatest composers of all times.

Johann Sebastian Bach on Stamps from Germany: The GDR (DDR) and the BRD
Font and "Deutsche Reich" are embarrassing enough. At least Germany in 1928 was not yet brown. Germany was still a parliamentary state, a democracy - the Weimar Republic.
1926 Germany

Now it is here – for the reason of completeness - with an immense discomfort.
1935 Germany
