Title: 1916 Russian Red Cross cachet can anyone identify it?
Post by: Chris Weddell on February 21, 2017, 09:09:25 PM
Hello All

            Can anyone  identify this Russian Red Cross cachet for me . I cannot seem to find it. The cover is dated for the 9th of October 1916. Any help at all would be gratefully received.

                                                                    Thanks in advance.

                                                                        Chris  ;)

Howard,

          Thank you very much for your help. I have heard of the Englehardt's before. Nick Clegg's Grandmother was a Baroness Englehardt !!

Chris,

I am happy to help with any Russian material, an area I have been collecting for over 50 years.
