    Serbia / Russo-Turkish War 1878 (March 5): Serbian folded Military formula letter-card printed on blue stock, used from Vrania (Serbian Vranje) to Nish, south Serbia and struck with MILITARY POST / SHUMADIJA CORPS datestamp (5/III) in black. Extremely scarce - no other mail from Bulgarian South-East Serbia has been recorded thus far.

    Note: Serbia entered the Russo-Turkish War in late 1877 and the Serbian Shumadija Corps occupied Vrania on January 31, 1878. The Treaty of San Stefano (Feb 19 julian / March 3, 1879 gregorian), consequently assigned a strip of south east Serbia, including the towns of Pirot and Vrania, to Bulgaria. The Serbs evacuated Vrania, but in March 1879 the Shumadija Corps re-occupied the area. The Bulgarians were to lose this territory under the provisions of the Treaty of Berlin in July, 1879.
