Austro-Hungarian Postmarks In Ukraine

Collecting early Austrian postmarks (till 1918)means you have to deal with at least 10 now existing countries (if you exclude foreign offices & military post - Bosnia&Herzegovina, Turkey, Israel etc.): Austria, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Ukraine, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Hungary, Romania, Serbia - I hope I did not forget any
I found no separate thread for Austrian postmarks in (modern) Ukraine.
Some postmarks and the historical names of the regions can be found here:

Now let see what Austrian stamps used in Ukraine the SCF has. Here are some I have:





Storozynetz - Storozhynets , historic region: (northern) Bukovina.

One more for today.
Sambor, now Sambir, western Ukraine. Historical region: Galicia

Bravo Wadmalatz! Thanks for the graphics and the history lessons. Who knows, some time in the future the SCF could be a great resource for Austro-Hungarian philately.

KOLOMEA/KOLOMYJA bilingual postmark, western Ukraine. Historical region: Galicia (but also the centre of the Hutsul culture, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hutsuls )

Great thread, I love Austrian postmarks. Mind if I join in?
