Summary

edit
Description
English: Russia 1902-02-12 commercial cover sent registered from Arensburg (now Kuressaare in Estonia) to Franz Anton Haage, seed wholesale in Erfurt Germany. Double registration marking: label '3' with imprinted number '220' and large black circular 'R' postmark for registered mail abroad, to elucidate registration to the foreign post office (in case they were unable to read cyrillic). Since 1900 UPU type registration labels (red frame, red 'R' on the left and black text right) were used in Russia. In larger post offices different labels were available for mail within Russia ('З' meaning 'ЗАКАЗНОЕ') and mail abroad 'R'.
