Late Provisional Use of NDH Registration Receipt

[alesmarinsek67@gmail.com]

A rare and controversial use of an Independent State of Croatia (NDH) form, illustrating that even more than a year after the liberation of the region, post offices still suffered from a persistent shortage of new official stationery.​

Registration Receipt for a shipment sent on December 28, 1945, from Petrovaradin, addressed to Josip Broz Tito, Marshal of Yugoslavia, Belgrade. Accepted by the Military Post on December 28, 1945, and transported to Belgrade, where it was received by an official of the Ministry of National Defence on January 3, 1946. Ultimately, the mail was not delivered to Tito but was returned to Petrovaradin.​
