Russian Parcel Card with Romanov Dynasty Stamps

Russia · 1915 · 1k, 5k, 7k, 10k kopecks

The parcel card features several definitive stamps from the 1913 Romanov Dynasty issue, depicting portraits of various Tsars, including Nicholas II. The card itself is marked with a red circular censor stamp.

This parcel card was sent during World War I (1915) from Petrograd (Russia) to Riihimäki (Finland), which was then part of the Russian Empire. The censor mark reflects wartime postal controls and the stamps commemorate the 300th anniversary of the Romanov dynasty, which would end just two years later.
