- Postcard (color, 3 ½ x 5 ½ inches) titled Gruss aus Bremen (Greetings from Bremen) – This postcard features depictions of several scenes in Bremen
Ratskeller (Council cellar), Kaiser Wilhelm I Denkmal (Kaiser Wilhelm I Monument), Rathaus, Dom Borse (Town Hall and stock exchange), and Gewerbehaus (Commercial building). The Bremen Ratskeller is the council wine cellar of the Townhall of Bremen. Since it was erected in the year 1405, German wines were stored and sold there. The memorial for Emperor Wilhelm I, sculpted by Robert Baerwald, was inaugurated on Kaiser-Wilhelm-Platz on the 18th October 1893. The equestrian statue was deconstructed in May 1942 and donated in the course of the German metal donation program on the 6th June 1942. The base was removed after the war. The Town Hall or Ratskeller, is the seat of the President of the Senate and Mayor of the Free Hanseatic City of Bremen. It is one of the most important examples of Brick Gothic and Weser Renaissance architecture in Europe. Gewerbehaus is a chamber of trade that was built from 1616 until 1621.
