While Edition No. 2 closely resembled No. 1, in No. 3 is found the exact time schedule of the Luftpost Exhibition, the Air Sports promotions of the week, an the listing of the daily programs.

The financing of these pamphlets was taken over by the advertising, which was placed by many companies from Danzig. In the offices at the Arsenal Passage, located in the romms of the Ruberg Company, you could buy envelopes with the promotion symbol. In the beginning, the official symbol was oval-shaped, but it soon became the familiar rectangular red an blue execution. People could buy, since autumn 1931, colorful emblems known officially as Promotion Symbols, from the Exhibition management.

Also available were blue and red printed lables which were cut from envelopes.
