POW Prisoner of War Mail. A quartet of postal cards sent 1942 / 1943 from Canadian soldiers held at Stalag POW camps in Germany during the second world war. All are cancelled with the German "Blackout" postmark (but identifiable to location by the POW Camp numbers) and censored by both the German and Canadian censorship offices. Complete with messages (as these are postcards) and all addressed to Quebec. Postal history items of Canadian soldiers in Germany are much harder to find than the equivalent German held POW in Canada mail. A tidy group, neatly mounted on a page. Estimate =
