Germany - Hamburg - Philatelie-Shop (datestamp)

Deutsche Post has established special philately windows in 26 major post offices throughout the country. Each uses a datestamp with the letters 'ps' in it to distinguish it from normal datestamps. The letters ps stand for Philatelie-shop.

The Philatelie-Shop in Hamburg can be found in the Mönckebergstraße, the large shopping street between the central station and town hall. The address for postmark requests is: Mönckebergstraße 7, 20095 Hamburg, Germany. Opening hours: Mo-Fr 9.00-19.00 h., Sat 9.00-15.00 h.

For the envelope I used the new definitive 90 cent stamp from the flower series, issued on 11 May 2017 that I bought at the Philatelie-Shop in Essen on the first day of issue.
