Harry Hill Bandholtz under the name is Tabornok,the date on this Cinderella is Aug 23rd 1936 and I assume from Szoborleleplezes,thanks to Londonbus (Michael) for pointing this out I then won this off ebay as well as a cover with a fantastic seal on the reverse and from the same seller ,this will be going into a frame as a conversational item .




regards Harry

Harry Hill Bandholtz was the US representative of the Allied Military Mission in Budapest, Hungary in 1919.

He was quite a hero in Hungary, with his statue, pictured on the Poster stamp, being unveiled in 1936. The Stamp was obviously issued to commemorate this event.
My wife is going to Budapest for a few days in April. I will ask her to take a picture of the statue so I can send it to Harry !

Londonbus1...It will look nice in the frame next to the stamp !

I have asked the wife and she said no problem.
So I will have to point out and mark on her map where it is.
