Each of the main Konzentrationslagers had its own postal control office, where post that was sent and received by the prisoners adhered to the SS regulations. Inmates registered one name and address when they were received at the camp - henceforth, the only recipient of any correspondence. Shown below are variations of the stamp control and censor markings that can be found on examples taken from various camps.
