1 October 1945
Luxembourg-Ville
[5:00-6:00 p.m.]
to
Ixelles-Bruxelles, Belgium
Luxembourg issued two postal cards on 1 October 1945: a 75c card featuring the Grand Ducal residence at Colmar-Berg paying the domestic rate and the rate to Belgium, and a 2.00-franc card for UPU use (including Germany).
The rate to France was set at 1.50-franc as of 20 Feb 1945, but a card was not issued for that rate.
The card shown here was sent on the first day of issue by J. P. Wallenborn, a well known Luxembourg stamp dealer, to the postal stationery enthusiast, August Wery, in Belgium.
Wallenborn writes:
Voici la première et l'autre va à votre adresse de Paris
Uses of these two cards in 1945 are scarce!
