David Feldman Romania June 5, 2019

Dear collector and client, We are proud to present to you in this catalogue a wonderful offering of Romania, divided into three sections: early Romanian postal history, a small but outstanding array of the famous Bull’s Heads, and a fine selection of Foreign Post Offices, which includes some Ottoman rarities. With regards to the early postal history, many items are listed with their specialised Dragomir types. Please note that many of the documents and letters in this section have been translated, and that these translations can be viewed by downloading their respective pdf files from our website. All the important classic items have their provenances and certificates clearly described (the certificates are also viewable on our website). Among the Bull’s Heads the offering of the famous 27 Parale double rate cover is historical as it is one of only three covers with multiple Moldavian Bulls frankings known in the philatelic market. Should you have any questions regarding one or more lots, or indeed the auction process itself, the team at David Feldman International Auctioneers will be pleased to help you.
