Larger Collections and Accumulations
1917/18, Mail from German PoWs in Russia and to Russian PoWs in Germany, an accumulation of 57 items nearly all from the Provisional Government and Bolshevik period, very varied and showing increasing use of franked civilian mail services in 1918. Notable for a wide range of cancellations including TPO and, for example, a January 1918 group photograph of German prisoners sent franked through the civilian post, something which prior to the German-Russian Armistice of late 1917 would not have been permitted. Overall, a very interesting lot
