Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Germany and Its Colonies
It might be considered more logical to place the stamps of Thurn and Taxis under a separate heading, as has been done with those of the German States that were merged into those of the North German Confederation, or the Empire; but as the service extended to several States in North and South Germany they are not localised, and have usually been placed under the head of Germany, and it is perhaps better to. Conform to custom.
The postage stamp history of Germany will, therefore, be considered under the following heads.
