Jiří Škaloud exhibit - Hradčany entires in the first postal rate period in Auction 76

We are delighted to introduce a wonderful collection of rare Hradčany entires created by Jiří Škaloud, a prominent Czech collector, exhibitor and expert. He achieved remarkable success at the PRAGA 2018 exhibition, where he was awarded gold medals for both of his exhibits in the postal history category. These exhibits included „Hradčany entires in the first postal rate period“ which is featured in this special auction catalogue, and „Hradčany Valuable Letters“ which will be offered in next year‘s auction.
