Lou wrote: Soon after Russia produced three stamps and a s/s to commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the First Postage Stamp in 1990, it was noted that the check letters, V-K and T-P, on two of the Penny Blacks did not correspond to any actual stamps. It was discovered that the stamps designer, Vladimir Koval, had used his initials and that of his married daughter, Tatviana Ruzova (R is written as P in Cyrillic), and then chose an actual Penny Black with the check letters N-K, which were the initials of his wife, Nina Koval. The Russian post was embarrassed and quickly printed two more stamps with Penny Blacks with actual check letters, A-H and T-F, as a replacement, but for some reason, all the stamps were put on sale.

Some time later, it was realized that Koval had not excluded his son, Marian, from his ploy either, as his initials, M-K, are the check letters on the Penny Black on the cachet he designed for the first day covers.

I had known about the use of the initials for check letters for years but only recently was able to accidentally find the actual names of his wife and children, on, of all things, a scan of a Russian language stamp album page in Google!

125th Anniversary of the Zemstvo Post in Russia

Lou wrote: An Internet Discovery: 125th Anniversary of the Zemstvo Post

One very good thing about the internet is that you get to see more things than the usual stamps and covers that are offered by your local stamp dealers. Postal stationery is one such area, and recently I saw two imprinted envelopes from Russia/USSR— mint and with first day cancel-- which caught my eye. According to the inscription on the stamp and the special cancel dated 26 03 1990, the envelope commemorated the 125th Anniversary of the Zemstvo Post in Russia.

This is an area of Russian postal history that does no get much exposure in this country, as Americans tend not to collect anything not listed in the Scott catalogs, but they are popular in Europe. Altho Russia had issued its first stamps in 1858, due to the vast size of the country, it depended on district administrations called Zemstvos, among their other duties, to process the local mails. From 1865 to 1917, over 160 districts and cities issued their so-called Rural stamps, which ranged from the primitive to ornate in design and from just hundreds to thousands in issue, based only on need. Today, prices for the Zemstvos range from a few dollars up to the thousands.

Getting back to viewing the envelope, the multicolor cachet reproduced 9 different Zemstvos, but the imprinted stamps was disappointing at first, as it showed a bearded figure, a wreath and shields and what looked like a maneless lion. I lamented there not being any SOS, but then decided to check at the Collectors Club library.

I went to what is considered the “bible” for collectors of this material: Catalogue of the Russian Rural Postage Stamps compiled by F. G. Chuchin and published in Moscow in 1925, and revised and reprinted in English in 1984 under the title, Russia Zemstvos.

Looking thru the 90 pages, I was able to find that these were actually motif details from three Zemstvos designs: Gryzavovets (Rural Postman). Chuchin #64, issued in 1894, Totma (Arms), Chuchin #3, issued in 1895 and Pskov (Arms), Chuchin #12, issued in1892—all in changed colors. Back on the internet, I was able to find (not the best) scans of the three, so that I can illustrate that the motifs are indeed from actual Zemstvos stamps.

Both envelopes are now in my collection, and someday, I hope to have the three Zemstvos as well.

Zemstvo (local) Post was a special service introduced for mailing purposes in areas with no state post offices. The first Zemstvo Post was established in Vetluga uyezd (district) of Kostroma Governorate in spring 1865.

Each Zemstvo postal authority acted only within its administrative territory. Zemstvo post offices were allowed to have their own stamps for postal payment provided that such stamps should not resemble either in image or colour the official postage stamps; nor might such stamps contain the emblem of the state postal service. The first Zemstvo postage stamp was issued in Verhnedneprovsk Governorate in 1866.

Most correspondence was sent across Zemstvo territories of eastern provinces – Perm, Samara, Vyatka, Kazan, Ufa, as well as in Kharkov, Poltava, Kursk, Tambov and Yekaterinoslav Governorates. It was issued 3027 postage stamps since 1866. The circulation of some issues reached tens and hundreds of thousands copies. That provided an active forwarding mail.

Zemstvo Post played an important and progressive role in Russia’s history as it enabled liaison between cultural centres and most distant corners of the country.

Lou wrote: when Russia issued a stamp to commemorate the 175th anniversary of the Zemstvo local stamps earlier this year, I liked the stamp, but the fdc only had an imprinted cachet. They also issued an imprinted envelope for the anniversary which had a great cachet of Zemstvos but just a common design stamp. I got the idea to combine the SOS with the imprinted envelope and asked a dealer in Russia to make one up for me, and he was willing. Of course, it does not have a first day cancel and he didn't address it like asked him to, but you can't have everything, and I think it makes for a better page in my collection.

Lou wrote: The format is very unusual; a rectangle of printed "perforations" enclose a SoS AND the postage stamp that values the sheet. These show the first stamp of Russia (Sc #1--note the imperf, Sc #2 is perforated) and a new 165r value example of the current "Eagles definitive" series created for this issue-- it is not a stamp on stamp. Surrounding them are multiple SoS issued from 1918 to 2022; the 2022 issue has not been listed/numbered by Scott's as yet.
