WWI German Military Postcard – Artillery in Position – 1915 Feldpost w/ Red Label – Das Deutsche Heer

This original World War I postcard features a printed image of Imperial German artillery troops in the field, captioned “Artillerie in Stellung” ("Artillery in Position"). Soldiers in full uniform with Pickelhaube helmets are shown manning a field gun in a wooded position, accompanied by equipment and ammunition crates. The card is part of the printed series “Das Deutsche Heer” ("The German Army"), widely distributed during the war.

Postmarked Goslar, April 13, 1915, the card was sent via the German Feldpost (military postal system) and bears a bold red “Feldpost” label. As per wartime regulations, military personnel were allowed to send mail free of charge when routed through official channels. The absence of a postage stamp and presence of the Feldpost label confirm this as an example of authorized free military mail.

Note: This is a printed postcard, not a real photo. It was mass-produced using lithographic or collotype printing and issued as part of a patriotic wartime postcard series.

This card offers strong visual and postal interest for collectors of Feldpost, WWI German military history, or artillery-themed ephemera.
