    1852 (April 3): Cover from St. Petersburg to Athens/Greece struck with boxed and dated "St. Petersburg" despatch handstamp, most unusually routed- most probably via Moscow, Kiev, Odessa to Kishinev and thence to Beltsy and struck on reverse with early usage of very rare SKULIANY manuscript filled datestamp (May 1) in black (Dobin Type 1.04). Athens datestamp of receipt in blue (May 19) alongside and charged "60" lepta due in manuscript. A rare cover that displays well.
