Lot 10120 – 1904 Registered cover to Kazan, readressed to Nizh

1904 Registered cover to Kazan, readressed to Nizhnii-Novgorod, franked on the reverse with 7k and 14k Arms tied by « MANCHULI / 1 / RAILWAY POSTAL BRANCH » 30.3.04 cds, with « POSTAL WAGON No.261 » transit cds, obverse with « ALEKSANDROVSKII FACTORY » registration label erased and corrected by hand, minor soiling, a rare emergency registration label. Note: Possibly because of the outbreak of war, the Manchuli Railway Station P.O. ran out of registration labels, so emergency supplies from the Aleksandrovskii Factory in the Transbailkal Province in SIberia were altered by hand. The Railway Station at that time was administered by the 10th Railway Postal District, based in Siberia, and did not come under the control of Harbin until 1915
