Gadiach Zemstvo cover locally addressed from some village to the administration of the district
Lot 3453
Gadiach Zemstvo locally addressed cover from some village to the administration of the district. Franked with 3k violet (Schmidt #24, issued in 1891), tied on arrival by circular blue datestamp of the Zemstvo post office of the city of Gadiach (05.01.18??) repeated twice and on front.

The cover is genuine, but for some reason the original stamp was removed and another stamp which doesn't belong to the cover was added. The place of the original stamp can be seen on the detailed scan. So the cover must be considered as "a local cover of Gadiach, but with the Zemstvo stamp removed".

One flap missing but a beautiful cover.
Condition: Schmidt #24
Type: Cover, Postal History
Period: 1850-1899
