Control board series with post squirrel overprint - 16 stamps mint never hinged, Germany

On June 21, 1948 the time had come - the DM was introduced in Germany - our cherished currency, which many still mourn today. In order to provide the large number of necessary postage stamps as quickly as possible, the individual Oberpostdirections were allowed to have the so-called “Control Council Series” labeled with “Posthörnchen”. Today I can offer you a complete set (36 II to 51 II) with a net-like overprint - 16 mint postage stamps (without catalog number 49 II).
