1915 (18 Nov) commercial cover from Mollas, sent via Elbasan to Tirana, correctly franked with a single 40pa blue, tied by Mollas departure (date applied by hand), with Elbasan transit (Gregorian calendar 18 Nov), also with another transit (5 Nov) and arrival (7 Nov, both of those Julian calendar) on reverse. During this period, the Serbian Post cooperated with Essad's post and both the Gregorian and Julian calendars were used (in 1915 they were 13 days apart), minor cover flaws, fine, with 2008 Otto Graf certificate (Cat No. Mi.14) (Image)
