office at Orsova, latest from May 1857, where mail was fed into the
Austrian postal system. The private local service used the "POST.
EXPE. KRAIOWA" handstamp which is found on outgoing and incoming

not clear, the rate of the cover can only be guessed. A despatch in
March 1864 as suggested by a former owner of this cover is
impossible as the first Arms adhesives perforated 14 came into use
not earlier than April 1864. If sent in March 1865 or 1866, this
was a quadruple letter, if sent in March 1867 this was a sixfold
letter. Note 2: The receiver of the letter was Alexandru Hurmuzachi

journalist, and folklorist. Provenance: Collection Julius
