Our (Austrian) information is that following the Anschluss, a local postage rate was introduced in the former Austria from 4 April 1939, and rates became:
Local postcard 5Rpf, inland postcard 6Rpf
Lowest-weight printed matter 2Rpf.
On 1 August the 10-gram printed matter step was abolished, leaving the 20 gram step. So the above rates became:
Local postcard 5Rpf, inland postcard 6Rpf
Lowest-weight printed matter 3Rpf.
My questions are (a) does anyone disagree with the above; (b) did the second set of rates remain valid until the end of the war? |
