    Posta Galbina 1864: Cover front to Jassy struck with the unique octagonal framed handstamp made by the Galbina Postmaster G. Rezmeritá, showing Post Horse and "GR" Postmaster's initials and "POSTA GALBINU-1864", struck in violet with manuscript "Cu porto" alongside (an insight as to how the private Postmaster's linked with the nascent postal system) and rate "30" parale in red crayon. Slight file hole in centre not greatly detracting from the appearance of this rarity. With comments on this item from Dragomir Kiriac and Dr. L. N. Tripcovici. The sole recorded example in private hands. See Kiriac Dragomir. Illustrated in Edition d'Or on page 93. Cert. Heimbüchler (2010). Provenance: Collection Edouard Cohen.

    1865: 2 parale orange, small piece with horizontal pair slightly over-lapping an extremely rare horizontal strip of five, the pair just touched at lower left, the strip of five with huge margins all round and insignificant corner bend at upper left; all cancelled by "Iassi" datestamps (28/9) in black (Kiriac fig. 399). An extraordinarily rare piece with the stamps in a vibrant rich shade and an extremely rare multiple: in all probability the largest known. Illustrated in Edition d'Or on page108 and in Handbook II on page 163. Cert. Heimbüchler (2009).
    Note: Both this and the next lot with the 5 pa. block of four were sent to the Ministry of Justice in Bucharest, this piece was mailed on September 28th, the 5pa. cover being mailed on September 22nd. Both were used to make the normal 20 parale rate and therefore indicate that the 20 pa. value had run short in Jassy during that week.

Bucharest arrival cds (25/9) on reverse of a rare and attractive cover. Illustrated in Edition d'Or on page 108 and in Handbook II on page 164. Cert. Heimbüchler (2009).
