RUSSIA Air Post Officials

Type V occurs only once per sheet and only two exist (the other example resides in a well-known prominent collection of RSFSR). As such, this is truly one of the most important rarities of Russian Airpost & the highlight RSFSR philately. As a measure of comparison, an inverted "Levanevsky" with small "f" (of which only 10 were printed, six recorded including two in the unique combination block of four) realized $718,750 in our June 2008 auction
