On May 1, 1948 international air mail services from Germany were re-started. At that time only aerogramme forms were accepted , which have to be bought with, initially, two International Reply Coupons (IRC's) each. From September 1, 1948, on the price was 1 IRC plus 30 Pfg in cash, from October 18, 1948, on it was 60 Pfg.
On the first day of the international air mail service, philatelists were allowed to send letters up to 10 g of weight franked at the 1 Mark aerogramme rate. These letters were called "Ersatz-Aerogramme" ("substitute" aerogrammes).
