500 years of postal service The Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications of the GDR publishes four multicolored special postage stamps "500 years postal service". Special cancellation from 28th of August to 27th of October 1990 After the small mail rider of Albrecht Dürer, who made the template for a motive postal stamp of the Federal Republic of Germany, West Berlin, Austria, Belgium and the GDR on the occasion of the anniversary 500 years postal service, the German Post lays now a second edition for the same occasion. The illustrations on the four stamps show historical means of transport, from messenger to rider and coach to railway mail cart. The illustrations on the 100 Pfennig value show two historic railway mail cars: a Prussian from 1842 and a three-axle railway mail car of the Reichspost around 1900 with skylight and letter insert.
