1901 VINETA PROVISIONAL
Lot Symbol CatNo. Lot Description CV or Estimate
2043 c Mi. #AI imageMichel #AI, 1901 "3PF" violet surcharge on 5pf Green bisect, "Vineta" Provisional, two left side vertical bisects tied to picture post card of Pernambuco, Brazil by "Kais. Deutsche/Marine-Schiffspost No. 1/17 4 01" c.d.s. with an additional strike at left, posted to Stuttgart with short personal message of the same date on the picture side, "Stuttgart/13 V 01" receiving c.d.s. at left so that the stamps and all the postal markings are on the front of the card, the stamps are fresh and well centered, the violet overprints are clear possessing the distinctive violet color that is characteristic only of the genuine stamps, very fine and very rare usage of these provisionals.Provisional issues have always held a fascination for philatelists, not only because of their usual scarcity, but because of the circumstances that produced them. In 1901 the S.M. Cruiser "Vineta" made a goodwill tour to the West Indies and South America. The Ship happened to be in port at New Orleans at the time of Kaiser's Birthday. The celebrations of the crew were given special coverage in the newspapers, but the ship sailed before a supply was delivered to the crew. These newspapers caught up with the ship in Port of Spain, Trinidad and the crew wanted to send copies of the newspapers back home. Naval personnel had been given the privilege of sending mail home at domestic German rates no matter what part of the world the ship was in. The rate for newspapers was 3pf, and since rarely was their reason to send Newspapers home, the ship's post office was not supplied with 3pf stamps. In route from Port of Spain to Pernambuco, Brazil the ship's First Purser with the Commander's approval devised a 3pf handstamp which was applied to vertical halves of the 5pf Green. Three sheets of 100, or 600 provisionals, were thus produced. The ship reached Pernambuco on April 17, 1901 thus providing the first opportunity for mail to be posted. On that day and later the crew used these provisionals to send newspapers, post cards and even letters back to their friends and family in Germany.The card offered here is special and exceptionally desirable in a number of ways. While this is not the intended newspaper usage it has the advantage of requiring two of these rare stamps to pay the 5pf rate, overpaying by 1pf. In addition it was postal regulation at that time that receiving cancellations be applied to cards and letters, while that was not the normal practice for printed matter. Thus the backstamp on this card documents its actual postal usage and confirms its authenticity in a way that is often lacking on newspaper bands. Furthermore, this card is one of the first sendings on April 17, 1901 with its location confirmed by the Pernambuco post card. Certainly a wonderful and extremely rare usage of this fascinating provisional; signed Richter, Kohler and accompanied by 1999 Wolfgang Jakubek BPP certificate and 2000 APS certificate (Scott #65B)..
