PRODUCT INFORMATION
COLLECTING ROMANIA OLYMPICS STAMPS OVER THE YEARS IS NOT ONLY AN ACQUAINTANCE WITH HISTORY, BUT ALSO A PROFITABLE INVESTMENT
The history of mail and stamps in Romania is divided into the early period, covering the history of the post of the Ottoman principalities (until 1859, including the appearance of the first stamps in Moldova in 1858[1][2]) and the United Principality of Wallachia and Moldavia (1859-1866); classical (1866-1947) and modern (since 1948) periods of Romania.
During the Crimean War, the Moldavian principality was occupied by Austria. Austrian field post offices began to operate on its territory, accepting private correspondence as well.
In 1857, a special commission was engaged in reforming the postal system in the Moldavian principality, which existed until 1859. At her suggestion, the post office in the principality was created as a completely state institution, new post offices were opened, the number of stagecoaches increased, fixed wages were assigned to postal workers, and mailboxes were introduced.
First stamps
Main article: Bull heads
On July 21, 1858, the first postage stamps of the Moldavian Principality were issued with the image of a bull's head and a post horn. They were printed by hand on laid paper; on the stamps there is an inscription in Cyrillic rum. "Porto skrisori" ("Delivery of a letter"). Just over 2,000 series were produced in total, and these stamps are quite rare these days. The estimate of the first stamp in the Iver catalog is 42.5 thousand euros, and the cost of the entire four-mark series exceeds 120 thousand euros.
The initial round design issue, 1307 episodes of which was withdrawn on October 31, 1858, was followed by a second issue on November 1, with a rounded square frame design on blue or white vellum paper. The stamps were inscribed in Latin "Porto scrisorei" ("Delivery of a letter") or "Porto gazetei" ("Delivery of a newspaper"). These stamps were also printed by hand. They are more common than the stamps of the first issue, their circulation amounted to approximately 23,000 series. They were in circulation until May 1, 1862.
In total, the Moldavian Principality issued seven postal miniatures (four of the first issue and three of the second). Stamps were used only within the principality. Mail abroad was sent through Austrian post offices.
The Principality of Wallachia did not issue its own stamps.
In 1859, Moldavia and Wallachia were united into a single state entity - the United Principality of Wallachia and Moldavia, which existed until 1866. According to the convention adopted in 1858 by the Paris Peace Conference, a common supreme court was created in the principalities, common postal, customs and monetary systems were introduced, as well as a common army.
The first stamps of the United Principality were issued in June 1862. They depicted the coats of arms of both principalities: the head of a bull - the coat of arms of Moldavia and the eagle) - the coat of arms of Wallachia, as well as the inscription "Franco scrisorei" ("Paid letter"). The name of the state was not indicated. There are two editions of these stamps. The 1862 issue was printed by hand, from a single stamp; the second issue, 1864, from the printed form. Stamps of different circulations differ in color. They were withdrawn from circulation on December 31, 1864.
On August 29, 1864, Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza approved the unification of the postal and telegraph services. By decree of December 3, 1865, he promulgated the first law on the organization of the postal and telegraph service.
In January 1865, a series of three stamps was issued depicting the profile of Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza. These miniatures were the first to bear the inscription "Posta Romana" (Romanian Post). The stamps were in circulation for a short time, until May 19 (31), 1866, since that year Cuza was overthrown.
In July 1866, a series of stamps from the Principality of Romania was issued with a portrait of Prince Carol I, which was shown in profile. The style of the miniatures was very reminiscent of the stamps of France of that time.
The introduction of the leu in 1867 necessitated the issuance of stamps denominated in the new currency, which appeared in January 1868. It was the last series that was used only within the country.
Since 1869, Romanian postage marks have been used for international correspondence. In the same year, stamps of a new design were issued. It was a profile picture of the prince, enclosed in an oval frame. The new design did not last long, and already in 1872 the round frame returned to the stamps.
The proclamation of Romania as a kingdom was not reflected in the postal issues. The first stamps of the Kingdom of Romania were issued in 1885. For a better perception, the denomination figures on the miniatures of the new series have become larger. An image of a bird appeared above the profile of Carol I. In October 1889, the coat of arms of royal Romania was embossed on the paper used for the production of postage stamps. The embossing looked like a watermark, but it wasn't really.
The first series of five commemorative stamps of Romania was issued in May 1891 in honor of the 25th anniversary of the reign of King Carol I. The profile of the king was framed with a commemorative inscription. In 1903, two series marked the opening of a new post office building in Bucharest. The miniatures of the first series depicted a post stagecoach, the second - the post office building and a portrait of Carol I.
In January 1906, the first postal-charity stamps of Romania were issued. They depicted Queen Elisabeth zu Wied.
The release of Romanian postal miniatures continued until 1914. In 1917, Romania, with the exception of the eastern part of Moldova, was occupied by the troops of Germany, Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria. A series of stamps prepared in the same year (with and without teeth) with a portrait of King Ferdinand I did not enter circulation. In the zones of occupation, specially prepared stamps were in circulation (see section Foreign post offices in Romania).
In 1918, in the territory of the eastern part of Moldavia, which was under the control of the Romanian authorities, six definitive stamps were issued, which were overprints on stamps of previous issues. In November 1918, the Romanian Post resumed operations throughout Romania, including Transylvania. The definitive stamps of 1909-1914 with a portrait of Carol I were reprinted and provided with the monogram of King Ferdinand I. All other stamps of the previous issues, except for the Moldavian one, were withdrawn from circulation.
In 1919, new stamps were issued with a portrait of King Ferdinand I.
In accordance with the law on the organization of the administration of the staff of posts, telegraphs and telephones of April 20, 1927, the territory of Romania was divided into 10 regional departments. One of them was in Chisinau.
In 1932, the first postal block of Romania was published, dedicated to the national philatelic exhibition "Efiro" (Efiro), held in Bucharest. A portrait of King Carol II was placed on the stamp of the block.
Romania's participation in World War II on the side of Germany and the expansionist policy pursued by the government of Ion Antonescu are reflected in the postage stamps of this country. So, for example, in August 1941, a series of 10 stamps with overprints was issued in honor of the capture of Chernivtsi and Chisinau by the Romanian troops, in October of the same year a series of four stamps and a block with overprints were issued in honor of the capture of Odessa.
In July 1941, Bessarabia and Bukovina were occupied by Romanian troops and annexed to Romania. In December of the same year, the Romanian post issued a series of 16 postage stamps dedicated to the annexation of Bukovina and Bessarabia, as well as a series of nine postal charity stamps, with an additional payment for winter aid to Bessarabia and Bukovina. The miniatures depicted views of the cities of the annexed territories.
On December 30, 1947, the Romanian People's Republic (PRR) was proclaimed. On January 25, 1948, the first miniature with the new name of the state "Republica Populară Romană", dedicated to the day of the national census, entered circulation. The blue-violet stamp, designed by A. Murnu, showed an outline map of Romania in the center and groups of workers on the sides. In March of the same year, the standard 1947 stamp series with a portrait of King Mihai I and views of Romania was overprinted "RPR".
The socialist orientation of the country was also reflected in the topics of postal issues. They presented the development of industry and agriculture, popular uprisings of the past, revolutionaries, Romanian-Soviet friendship, etc. Stamps with portraits of K. Marx, F. Engels and V. I. Lenin appeared in Romania as early as June 1945. In the latter case, the stamp of Romania (Mi #863) became the first foreign stamp of Lenin.
In addition to the country name inscriptions mentioned above, the stamps of Romania also featured the following: “RP Romînă”, “Romania Posta” or “Posta Romîna” (“Romanian Post”). In 1965, Romania was proclaimed a Socialist Republic, but this was not reflected in the symbols on the postage, since on January 15, 1964, a series of ten stamps dedicated to Soviet cosmonauts and American astronauts was issued, with the inscription Posta Romana (“Romanian Post”). All subsequent editions of Romania contained similar text. Starting from March 1996, the inscription "Romănia" reappeared on the stamps.
In 1971, the Romanian post began to regularly publish small-circulation blocks (from 12.5 to 30 thousand copies) with and without teeth, in changed colors or patterns.
