This image showcases an old-style telegram form issued by Deutsche Post in the former East Germany (DDR). The form is printed on brownish paper and labeled "TELEGRAMM" at the top. It includes sections for sender (Absender), recipient (Empfänger), address (Straße/Nr.), postal code/location (Postleitzahl/Ort), and additional details such as transmission dates and times.

The telegram features three DDR postage stamps in the foreground. Each stamp displays an illustrated rose in vibrant colors: yellow (25 Pfennigs), red-pink (25 Pfennigs), and pink (35 Pfennigs). The stamps are postmarked with overlapping blue and black ink stamps. The blue ink stamp includes text referring to "DIE GRÜNEN" and "EUROPA-PARLAMENT," suggesting political or electoral content related to the European Parliament and the Green Party.

Handwritten numbers and marks cover parts of the form, adding a personal or official touch, likely indicating fee calculations or administrative notes. The overall design reflects vintage communication methods and postal aesthetics typical of the DDR.

The image depicts an old German Telegram form from Deutsche Post used in the former East Germany (DDR). The form includes sections for details such as sender, recipient, and message, though these fields are not filled out in this image.

In the center of the form, there are three postage stamps, each depicting a different colored rose. The stamps are marked "DDR" and have denominations of 25 and 35.

Above the stamps, there is a large blue-green oval ink stamp with the text “ZUM EUROPA-PARLAMENT WÄHLT DIE GRÜNEN” (Vote for the Greens in the European Parliament). This suggests the telegram may have been used as part of a political campaign for the Green Party.

Overall, the form appears to have been used for philatelic purposes or as a political promotion rather than for sending a telegram message.
