Los 5840
Almost complete collection of Russian straightline cancels (only "Margaritais" missing) on 56 singles, pairs and a block of the 1899 Handstamped Issue, noted a 1m blue type I with "MELAMBES," a 1m green single with a "DAMASTA," and a block of four with "SELIA," a pair of 2m black without control (unlisted as such) with "ANOGEIA," a single with "FODELE," and another single with "DAMASTA," and numerous others; lot contains only one "RETHYMNON". Very fine, difficult to assemble, most are clear and in most cases full strikes.
