Description
An outstanding piece of 1897 postal history: an international registered letter from Riga to Germany, complete with its original 5-page enclosure and a complex redirected route. The cover is franked with a 20-kopeck stamp and features a desirable dotted "R" (Recommandé) registration handstamp. Originally addressed to Berlin, the letter was redirected twice: first to Wiesbaden, and then to Baden-Baden. The reverse showcases a spectacular array of arrival and transit postmarks (all dated December 16, 1897), alongside a black wax seal with a monogram.
