    Austrian Consular Post Office in Bacau 1863: The famous cover bearing no less than twelve examples of the 3 soldi green, perf. 14., used on re-folded cover to Venice, all cancelled by centrally struck "BAKEU" datestamps (18/3) in black (Tchilinghirian fig. 721, covers "RRR"). This remarkable multiple franking is mentioned in Tchilinghirian & Stephen "the collection of A. Rivolta contains an extraordinary cover" and was mailed via Austrian P.O. in Jassy (21/3), Vienna (26/3) and with Venice arrival (27/3). The upper row of six stamps all with horizontal file fold where they over-lapped the top of the cover and the addressee's name, originally deleted, has had the deletion removed. However, this franking is a "non-pareil" in Austrian Levant Postal History with no Bakeu cover in the 'Alexandria' or the Jerger collections of Levant. A major classic rarity of Levant and Romanian Postal History. Illustrated in N. Blistyar 'Donaufürstentümern und der Dobrudscha' on page 77, in Edition d'Or on page 160. Cert. Enzo Diena (1991).
    Provenance: Collection Achille Rivolta.
