VERLAG CARL WERNER

Verlag Carl Werner was a publisher of numerous high quality coloured postcards during the Second World War. This section of my website is most definitely a work in progress as there is still much that is needed to complete these pages.



The cards in this section can be found in German, French, Dutch, Spanish and Portugese language versions and were part of annual calendars (the Dutch versions were part of a 1944 calendar, and it is likely that all the other language variants were too).

NOTE: This section is a work in progress and the detials may change with additional research, any assistance is greatly appreciated.
