Early Levant Mail 1480 (Nov. 27): Superb early entire letter from Gallipoli to Pera, clearly dated merchant's letter, fresh and very fine. Note: The Ottoman Turks had largely overrun the Eastern Byzantine Empire and expelled the Seljuk Turks by 1460. They encouraged foreign merchants to settle and continue trading with the West from their enclaves in Galata, Pera and the Black Sea area.Ausruf : 200 CHFZuschlag : 300 CHF
