Activities in 1995

We wish you all a great year in 1995, especially Eddie Kraus, who is recovering from heart surg ery. This “minor” distraction didn’t keep Eddie from sending us a batch of copies of his Prussian covers, with explanations of their meanings. This will be sorted out and printd in our next Report, which will be delivered to the Arge’s annual meeting at Hamm Pelkum, on May 20th. (Yes, Karl, we’ll be there again!) We look forward to seeing many of our old friends at that time.

From Hamm-Pelkum, we plan to fly to Gdansk and complete some studies and to photograph areas that hadn’t been covered before. Hopefully, the old courts, Senate, and Stutthof will be on the agenda. Word has it that a wedding of two Danzig researchers will occur in May. Sounds interesting.

Ewa Panas’ well-researched article on the siege of the Polish Post Office on 1.9.39 will also be ready for the next Report, as well as more color photos of stamps and scenes of Danzig.
