Lot no. 6167

1919, 2-10 kopeks, with additional franking tied by cds. "REVAL -2 5 19" (!!) to slightly overpaid registered cover addressed to Mr. Senf in Leipzig, with censor and arrival mark. Studies evaluating the local issue Tallinn seems contradictory. According to the official record of the Estonian Postal Administration, the stamps were overprinted on May 1919 and issued on May 1919. On the other hand, it is known that the handstamp "Eesti Post" delivered to the Postal Administration "around the 27th of April". The production of a total of 14000 stamps within 10 days appears more likely than within two days on May. Backflap missing, otherwise very fine, with detailed certificate Löbbering BPP (2015) and certificate Mikulski (1987) describing these stamps as proofs
