The Socialist Unity Party of Germany (German: Sozialistische Einheitspartei Deutschlands, SED), often known as the East German Communist Party, was the founding and ruling party of the German Democratic Republic from the country's foundation in October 1949 until its dissolution after the Peaceful Revolution in 1989. It was a Marxist–Leninist communist party, established in April 1946 as a merger between the East German branches of the Communist Party of Germany and Social Democratic Party of Germany.

Cover sent registered from Karl Marx Stadt to France franked with a set issued to publicize the 1974 stamp exhibition in that city, plus two stamps. On the front, a red mark in French, probably applied in Paris, that I can't read since it is very poor and don't know its purpose:

On the back, the same Tauschkontrollmarke ("Swap Control Token") that I already showed on other cover and rod discussed it, plus arrival postmark:
