Mourning Stamp Card (reverse unprinted, so may not have been intended to be a post card) picturing an image of the Mourning Stamp (mourning the end of Finnish-design stamps as they were finally completely replaced, in 1901, by Russian-design stamps) and images of six values of the 3-Numeral Finnish issue, decorated by black ribbons and the Finnish coat of arms, with "1901" superimposed. The reverse is soiled and with writing. The front is a little worn and with a short row of needle holes at one extreme edge, but has an extremely dramatic design and appearance; it is in better quality than usual for this type of item. A rarely offered design of great import to the philately of Finland.
