Ralph, thank you. That type of information can only be obtained from people who have studied for many years. I appreciate the information.

Here's something different and just fits into the time frame of this discussion thread.

A postal card from Schaffhausen 4 August 1871 to Lahr, Baden.
From October 1870 until December 31 1871 postal cards could only be sent at the letter rate of 25 centimes to Germany and Austria.
