7029 cover imageAustrian Lloyd Agency in Aleppo 1856 (March 6): Entire letter from Alexandretta to Aleppo, internally dated “6 Marzo 56”, struck with clear and very rare bilingual Arabic "L + A / An Djanibi Postai Nemce Haleb 1855" (Lloyd Austriaco from the Austrian Post in Aleppo 1855) handstamp (Müller 2024a = 1'400 points / Tranmer fig. 1) in bluish black. Cover with minute file folds of no importance, an appealing entire with this rare handstamp, cert. Ferchenbauer (2000). Note: This is the only bilingual Austrian Levant postmark - a rarity only in use from 1855/56. Ing. Edwin Müller (1960) knew only two items with this cancellation in black, a number not changed until 1976, when Keith Tranmer published his study on this subject. He stated that this handstamp was used only as an arrival mark, however outgoing covers are known to the describer, all struck in 1855/56 in blue or blackish blue and all being part of the same Dahlah correspondence, showing that this postmark clearly functioned as a temporary arrival and despatch postmark. An updated census of the known material can be found hereunder. Provenance: Collection Cihangir, Corinphila sale (May 2000), lot 1929.

7031 cover imageAustrian Lloyd Agency in Aleppo 1857c (June 19): Envelope from ‘Theodor Lattas K.K. Oberleutnant im Erzherzog. Leopold 53. Infanterieregiment’ in Verona via Aleppo to Omer Pasha in Baghdad, struck in transit with clear rare "AGENZIA DEL LLOYD AUSTRIACO / ALEPPO" sunburst handstamp (Müller 2024b = 750 points / Tranmer fig. 2) in blue, handwritten “Aleppo 19 Giugno / l’Agente N. Nau” forwarder note (unknown to Rowe) alongside. One sideflap missing, nevertheless a most interesting cover via the Lloyd P.O. in Aleppo on its way via the desert to Baghdad. Note: The addressee Omer Pasha (1806-1871) was an Ottoman field marshal and governor. Born as Mihajlo Latas, an ethnic Serb and Orthodox Christian in Janja Gora, at the time part of the Croatian Military Frontier of the Austrian Empire. Like his father, he initially served as an Austrian soldier. In 1823 he fled to Ottoman Bosnia and converted to Islam; he then joined the Ottoman army, where he quickly rose through the ranks. He was a commander in the Crimean War of 1853-1856, where he defeated the Russians at Silistra, regaining Bucharest and occupying the Danubian Principalities. He also won notable victories at Olteni?a, Eupatoria and participated in the Siege of Sevastopol. As a commander Omer Pasha was noted especially for his excellent strategic skills. In 1857-59 he was Governor of Baghdad. The sender Theodor Lattas was presumably a relative of Omer Pasha who stayed in Austria and made his career in the army on that side of the border.
