Lot No. 2549
1944. Registered Airmail letter to a Swedisch stamp dealer - the envelope used was supplied by the dealer and is inscribed ”First Day” in four languages, bearing a complete set of Croat Youth Fund, tied by two strikes of ”ZAGREB 2/CAR ODJELJENE 25.IV.44” (three day after the stamps were issued), private boxed ”Preporuceno” (registered) cachet in violet, old style R-Label (Cyrillic test undisturbed), new style ”Par avion” label and German censorship markings and scarce CUSTOMS cachet (”Devisni Pregled”) alongside, at reverse sender's details. Only a handfull of such covers are recorded as practically no mail with late commemorative issues was sent as either commercial or philatelic usages. Very scarce and attractive.
