Free City Of Bremen Passport 1907

What a pretty passport in 100% mint condition, because not used and protected by a cover which was unusual for German passports at that time but known with UK & US documents. Also the type “Free City of Bremen” is not so often to spot. Very glad to get this item for my collection. Remember what I always say “Collect quality instead of quantity”. Unfortunately, I did not find any data about August Dreyer in the Bremen passport register. I wish there would be more passport register online. Bremen is a great example and exception!

German Empire passports from Bremen are nowadays challenging to find. If you collect these don’t hassle to grab them, even if you might pay a higher price – they are rare!
