WWII Era Stampless Soldiers Mail. ULTRAMARINE KENTTÄPOSTIA (field post / military mail) boxed handstamp (typical of one of the many styles) and January 1941 dated town postmark of KALLIOKOSKI (located halfway between the Karelian peninsula and Helsinki). TAPANILA / MOSABACKA (Finnish / Swedish language) bilingual 29 January 1941 receiving postmark on reverse. Mailed in the period between the Winter War and the Continuation War. The sender name and unit number are on the reverse. The amount of Kenttäpostia mail between the wars was lessened and examples in that period are more likely to also bear a "normal" town postmark in addition to the military marking. Ultramarine handstamps are much scarcer. Very fresh and attractive. ACTUAL item. |
