Rural Post: 18 bani red-orange, type 2 of the transfer block, a fresh-colour example with ample margins on all sides, tied to a domestic cover sent in the 1st weight step on 24/3, presumably 1869. Cancelled by the elusive rural postmark
DIST.TELEORMAN* PL.TIRGULUI 24/3*. Addressed to “Colonel Mihail Cogalniceanu, Minister of the Interior” in Bucharest, via Turnu Magurele (24/3), with arrival datestamp 28/3, both transit and arrival markings on reverse. The cover has a repaired tear
at the top and shows some creasing and signs of ageing; otherwise fine. A rare and noteworthy cover bearing an elusive rural postmark and addressed to a famous political figure. Signed Heimbüchler.
Note: Mihail Kogălniceanu (6 September 1817–1 July 1891) was a Romanian statesman, lawyer, historian and publicist. He served several times as Minister of the Interior under both Alexandru Ioan Cuza and Carol I, and was Prime Minister of Romania from
11 October 1863 to 26 January 1865. He later served as Foreign Minister under Carol I. (Image 1)

on a cover. A very fine and rare cover. (Image 1)
