  • Lot# : 7748 Austrian Levant

    S. S. BOHEMIA (XLVII) 1897 (Dec 19): Levant 20 pa. + 20 pa. reply postal stationery cards used to Roermond, Netherlands, written on board the 'Bohemia' cancelled by fine LLOYD AUSTRO-UNGARICO / XLVII datestamp in blue (Tchilinghirian fig. 120), reply half attached but unused. Roermond arrival at left; together with 1900 postcard of the 'Bohemia' franked Levant 20 pa. with same datestamp in blue. Scarce: Tchilinghirian states 'use later than 1897 uncertain', these cards clearly prove the 'S. S. Niobe' datestamp was transferred to the 'Bohemia'.
