Cover Watch – Austrian Levant*

Gerrusalemme

Coverwatch_Jerusalem
This fake is not difficult to detect, because the forger made a few mistakes: he used a Hungarian Postal Stationery 2 Kreuzer card instead of the 4 Soldi or 5 Soldi cards used in the Austrian Levant. Also the wrongly spelled GERRUSALEMME cancellation is clearly different from the original one.
