Item Description

This image is likely associated with the youth hostel movement, which was particularly popular in Germany during this period. The postcard may have been produced or distributed by the Brandenburg branch of the German Youth Hostel Association (Deutsches Jugendherbergswerk) to promote their network of affordable accommodations for young travelers. The style of dress, including backpacks and musical instruments, reflects the ideals of the Wandervogel movement, which emphasized outdoor activities, nature appreciation, and communal experiences. This postcard offers a fascinating glimpse into youth culture and travel in Germany during the interwar period, highlighting the role of youth hostels in facilitating affordable and enriching travel experiences.

Returns Policy

I accept returns; however, since postcards (even vintage ones) are often relatively low-cost collectibles, and the seller is not in a position to cover return shipping expenses, the return shipping via Registered Shipping, as well as the original shipping, is at the buyer's expense. To avoid unnecessary costs, I encourage you to carefully review the scans before purchasing. I’m also happy to answer any questions you may have to ensure you’re fully satisfied with your choice. This way, you can avoid paying for double shipping and ensure a smooth transaction.
