1911
The 1911 postcard page has now been split into four separate pages as it was beginning to get unwieldy. All 1911 Official postcards are now on this page. Official postcards are cards that were issued by the Reich’s post office, had pre-printed (indicia) stamps and were widely available throughout German towns and cities.
Secondly Printed to Private Order postcards are postcards that were generally issued by entities that were advertising an event or commemorating an anniversary, and also had pre-printed stamps, but were not widely available throughout Germany (most were only available at the event they were commemorating).
Thirdly Other postcards are postcards that fall into the same general category as printed to private order however they do not have pre-printed stamps.
Finally, Miscellaneous postcards is where you will find postcards that do not fit into the first three categories (i.e. they are not official, they do not have pre-printed stamps, and they do not commemorate an event).

ZENTRUM PARTEI
(UNKNOWN)
The publication date for this series of postcards is unknown, as is the quantity. I have placed them here temporarily, but more research is needed to determine the actual date of issue and quantity. These cards were likely issued prior to the 1912 German elections and several have dates of 1910 so it is probable that this set was issued somewhere between 1910 and 1912.
