1909 (January 9) International postcard from the Russian Post Office in the Ottoman Empire, ROPiT. Constantinople – St. Petersburg. Franked with Levant stamps worth 20k/4k and 10k/2k. Sea shipment on the Black Sea. Turkish postcard, written from Constantinople, sent in a ship's mailbox to St. Petersburg, accordingly cancelled upon arrival in Odessa on January 9, 1909, where the violet "PAQUEBOT" stamp was used. The postcard arrived in St. Petersburg on January 14, 1909.

Russia & Soviet Union / Offices in Levant

Rarity - Although a significant volume of uncanceled mail from Levantine shipping lines was likely unloaded in Odessa, the "Paquebot" postmark, required by the rules of the Universal Postal Union (U.P.U.), was very rarely used there.
