1945 SPLIT, Improper handling

In 1945 communist commissioners were present at each post office and the regime had strict control of all postal operations. Nevertheless, some postal items passed through the postal system with improper handling...

1945 Split local provisional issue, stationery of type 2/IIa, from well known Novak correspondence, sent from Šibenik (14.VI.45 as from message) to Nova Gradiška (4.VII.45). Censor cancellation Nova Gradiška. Improper handling as it was not canceled and censored in Šibenik but at the destination in Nova Gradiška.

1945 LJUBLJANA, Early cheque order

Immediately after the liberation of Ljubljana, a postal traffic for private shipments and cheque orders was suspended. It was reopened on 30.05.45 for cheque orders and on 08.06.45 for the shipments. Because there were no overprinted stamps until the 08.06. cheque orders paid out between 30.05. and 08.06. were franked with the old occupation stamps.

1945 Ljubljana provisional issue, cheque money order for 1.057,37 Lire, issued in Ljubljana 7.5.45, received in Rovte 4.VI.45, paid out 8.VI.45 and liquidated 11.VI.1945, charged a delivery fee with 50 cent, using German occupation "Landscapes" stamp.

Cheque order cachet, issued 7.5.45.

Bilingual cancellation GEREUTH / ROVTE from 4.VI.45 ...

... and the same cancellation four days later, now with the removed German inscription.

1941 BANJA LUKA, Non philatelic letter

So far, I have seen only one non philatelic letter...

1941 Banja Luka, provisional issue, letter correctly franked with 2 din, sent from Banja Luka (21.IV.41) to Teslić (13.V.41). This is the only letter free of philatelic influence known to me.
