Always welcome Dean, this is the fun of it no? Yes the text I think is relevant, Ill try to tell you what it says, if you want? The bottom scan, "Zur Jul.Molen ...", well, Molen was the maker of the original text on the front. Gedenkfeier, is a memorial feast, Plauen, a city in the Vogtlandkreis region, so, Plauen i.V is city of Plauen in Vogtlandkreis. There, a memorial feast was held, on october 10, 1917. This card was made for that feast, to sell maybe or hand out.

The top text, the gothic type can be difficult, but, the words;
"Deutschland, einig, stolz und stark
Wahr des Reiches neue Mark!
Halte aus im letzen Streit -
Deutscher Friede ist nit weit!
V."

The letter V at the bottom, the writer initial. The text means;
Germany, united, proud and strong
the true new\future way (the litteral Mark, is difficult to fit here?) of the Reich
Hold on (sustain?) in the final battle -
German peace is not far away!


Nichts ist Ende, nichts ist Anfang.
