DEUTSCHE S POST (WEIMAR REPUBLIC) issued between May and July 1925 three stamps to celebrate 1,000 Years of the Union of the Rhineland with Germany. The Rhineland had been occupied by the French at the end of World War I, and the region was returned to Germany in 1925.
The designs depicted a German eagle watching the Rhine Valley with castle and millinery furnace.
All of these stamps were issued both in panes of 100 and in coil rolls. The 5 Pf. and 10 Pf. denominations were also issued in booklets, with there being panes of 10 stamps of each denomination.
The Weimar Republic began issuing commemorative postage stamps and charity stamps with commemorative themes, during the period from 1924 through 1927.
