Austro-Hungarian (Austria-Hungary) Empire Postmarks

Wadmalatz - Do you sell Austria Hungary Empire stamps?

If, like me, you've discovered that you have some of these rarer perf varieties in your collection, you may be wondering how to convert the schilling values to Euros. Here's a currency converter you can use:

Here's a couple of Austrian postmarks from me:

(1) KRAKAU BAHNHOF - 1870 - thimble cancel



(2) SAGOR - now in Poland - 'Nachma...' presumably means afternoon.



(3) Nice pen cancel - some kind of postmark starting 'K. K.'

The first postmark is from the Krakow (now, Poland) railway station. The third may stand for K.K. : Kaisserliche Koëningliche, that's "Imperial" (for Austria) and "Royal" (for Hungary).

Residential district of Wien and (!!) Budapest.


First: Pest/Terezvaros ../9/70 (these stamps were in use in the Hungarian Kingdom till 31.July.1871, in Austria they remained in use)
Habsburggasse/Wien
Josefstadt/Wien 8/../69
Bee See, I only keep what is cancelled in the Hungarian Kingdom - and unfortunately I have VERY few of them -at least I feel that way
All Austria I have is for trade for (Austria)Hungary pre 1900, and in the last instance they`re for sell... as soon I finish sorting the 1883 issue (guess one week), a big selection of nice cancellations will be offered for trade, then for sale (if no offer for trade)...Eventually let me know what to look for: region
-Bohemia (Czech)
-Moravia (Slowakia)
-Austria
-Galicia (Poland/Ukraine)
-southern parts (although I`ll some from Croatia)-Triest etc.

This one is new for me, and I`ll appreciate any information



I hope it`s visible, this stamp has an `embossed` mark in the middle:

M. J. Mandl
---------- (ornament)
Wien

A kind of `perfin`?

Here's two more interesting Austrians:

(1) Thimble cancel (KUFSTEIN STADT)



(2) Unusual, rather attractive cancel from Bosnia (please let me know if you know what it is):

Gewitsch, Moravia, now Jevícko in the Czech Republic.



Feldkirchen, Carinthia or Feldkirch Vorarlberg, not sure which.



Klagenfurt, Carinthia

I think Feldkirchen would continue too far around the circle, but I haven't searched out any examples to compare. I wonder if there would've been only one "Feldkirch" within the empire?

It is nice to see the i.d. along with the strikes, even the guesses.

This thread has some legs.

I thought about the length of Feldkirchen, but without the "en" it seems a tad too short. Maybe I will superimpose it in Paint shop Pro.

My latest purchase to my Hungarian collection (and first in 2 years!). So glad to find a Hungarian auction site (not only for stamps) and managed to be able to bid there!
`Debreczin`- now Debrecen

Not sure what this is...




One candidate might be Velký Drevíc but there are a lot of letters in that ring, and they don't really match much that I have been able to find.

[edit: the preview liked the Czech spelling, but the post didn't.]

Velky Drevic is good, because it`s former German name is Gross (i mean Gro- scharfes S) Drewitsch, and the GRO.. is visible on your stamp. A useful site for Bohemian (Czech) place names, scroll down to Gross Drewitsch:

BeeSee,Wadmalatz etc....i have had these glassines of Austria and Hungary from the turn of the century forever...the only Austria Hungary I collect is from Northern Italy...if you guys can use anything like this..i have both Hungary and Austria..you are welcome to them I am sure we could work out modest swaps !

yes, the last one (`Nagy Tany/907/Ápr/??/(Komár) M.) is definitely wanted! Nagy Tany, now 'Ton', Slovakia. And in the upper row are very interesting cancellations too... Now let's see what do I have from Northern Italy...
