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 Berlin Zoologischer Garten can be found in the shopping center next to the
Zoologischer Garten train station, only a few hundred meters behind the Kaiser
Wilhelm Gedächtniskirche. The address for postmark requests is: Joachimstaler Straβe
41, 10623 Berlin Zoologischer Garten, Germany. Opening hours: Mo-Fr 10.00-19.00
h., Sat 10.00-17.00 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.
