Austrian Levant stamps on cover from Preveza

Austrian Empire · 1875 · 3 soldi, 5 soldi

The cover bears three Austrian Levant stamps, two 3 soldi and one 5 soldi, featuring the imperial double-headed eagle coat of arms, cancelled with a 'PREVESA' postmark.

These stamps were used by the Austrian Empire's extensive network of post offices in the Ottoman Empire, reflecting its political and economic influence in the region during the late 19th century.
