Lot 81244 – 1940 cover with seven King Carol II imperforate stamps

Seven imperforate stamps from five different sets (1939 “Centenary of the Birth of King Carol I,” 1937 “25th Anniversary of the Federation of Romanian Sports Clubs,” 1939 “9th Anniversary of the Accession of King Carol I” [Saint George], 1939 “Romanian Railways, 70th Anniversary,” and 1938 “Birth Centenary of Painter Nicolae Grigorescu”) on a registered local cover, favor-cancelled in Bucharest on 3/2/1940, with arrival on the reverse. Only 200 of each stamp were produced for King Carol II, a well-known stamp collector, and few covers feature such a large number different stamps. Interesting for topical collectors (horses, scouts, trains, art). Very fine condition, rare. Cert. Cherata AIEP (2024).
