Austria 1908 4 Heller Postage Due Stamp

Austria · 1908 · 4 heller

The stamp features an ornate rectangular frame enclosing the text 'K.K. FREIMARKE' at the top, 'NACHPORTO' (Postage Due) prominently in the center, and the denomination '4 HELLER' at the bottom.

This stamp was issued by the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1908 to collect underpaid postage. Its cancellation in Bucovina (now Ukraine) reflects the vast geographical reach of the empire's postal services shortly before World War I.
