Concordance
– Thematic: The 3‑Pf Air‑raid protection stamp belongs to a series highlighting civil defence and national preparedness. The postcard, with its bold “Luftschutz!” message and imagery of a defensive figure equipped with shield and spear, visually reinforces the same theme of protective mobilisation. Although the designs differ in representation (allegorical vs. emblematic), both elements promote air‑raid awareness and civil protection.
– Geographic: The postmark from Straubing, located in Bavaria, aligns with the German origin of both the stamp and the propaganda postcard, ensuring coherent national context within the Deutsches Reich during this period.
– Temporal: The postmark date 9 June 1940 occurs after the stamp’s issue date of 3 March 1937, well within its official period of postal validity. This ensures correct chronological compatibility between stamp and postal use.
