MICHEL K8
OFFICIAL KARTENBRIEF
10 PFENNIG
Issued in 1899. This kartenbrief has the same design on the front as that of K1-K7 previously. K8 is the last of 8 Kartenbrief with this 10Pf 'large eagle in circle', pre-printed stamp.
It can be distinguished from the earlier cards by the absence of perforation holes at the top of the card. The earlier cards had perforation holes all the way from the top to the bottom, whereas K8 does not have them at the very top or at the bottom.
