DEUTSCHES REICHPOST on 4 October 1935 issued a set of ten "Nothilfe" semi-postal stamps. The surtax amount on the stamps went to charitable organisations. The theme of these stamps was "German Regional Costumes", and, by denomination, from lowest to highest, they depict women in regional styles of dress for East Prussia, Silesia, Rhineland, Lower Saxony, Brandenburg, Black Forest, Hesse, Upper Bavaria, Friesland, and Franconia. These stamps were based on photographs by H. Retzlaff.
