    Russian Post Office in Bucharest 1849: Cover from Galatz to Bucharest rated "30" in red crayon manuscript, struck with framed Cyrillic 'GALATS' datestamp in black (Tchilinghirian as fig.45 -"RR"). Slight cover crease away from the cancellation, which is an exceptionally clear strike of this very rare and elusive datestamp.
    Note: Bucharest was under Russian Military Occupation from 1848-1849.
    Starting bid : 600 CHF
