Germany concentration camp correspondence, Gusen (
Sale No: 27
Lot No: 330
Symbol: ENV

image 1941-1944 Gusen (Mautheausen, AUSTRIA) German concentration camp correspondence, 35 items incl. 11 intact printed forms (various layouts) with postage stamps and messages, 23 single or multi-sheet letters (no address panel or stamp) incl one half sheet, and one printed notice regarding Christmas packages. Stamped examples are largely 12pf red Hitler, one with two 6d purple Hitler, one with partial stamp removal, and addressed to Wilamowice (Wilmesau), Poland. Correspondence is from Franz Stuszek (ID # 3636 and later #43044), Block 6/II, or IB. Small printed form instructs that one Christmas package is allowed, with groceries and tobacco only, any other goods confiscated, and that contents and exact address of detainee must be declared, with pink "Gusen" handstamp. This was presumable included in a letter to a recipient outside the camp to provide instruction on sending Christmas packages. The form letters have a variety of printing formats including "Konzentrationslagur Mauthusen/Gusen Oberdonau" with Mauthusen crossed out, "Gusen", "Gusen St. Georgen" etc written in with pen. The three Gusen concentration camps were part of the larger Mauthusen camp system and served as slave labour camps with half of the prisoners dying. The Gusen camp also served as the central SS camp where looted goods were sorted for return to Germany. (Image)
