    1848: Double-headed eagle 10 (+1) k. black with wide tail postal stationery, cancelled by pen stroke, sent 1849 from St. Petersburg to Moscow, with red framed "S. PETERBURG 26 FEB 1849" departure mark and red two-line "Polutsheno Vetshera 1849 MARTA 1" (received in the evening of March 1, 1849) alongside. Small fault due to the detached wax seal, otherwise a very fine copy of the stationery which is strongly undervalued in the Michel catalogue.
