History of Russia: The exhibition "1857", dedicated to the history of the postage stamp in Russia, in Ulyanovsk
16 November 2017
The new exhibition "1857", which is opened on November 16, 2017 in the Museum "Postal business of Simbirsk-Ulyanovsk", was not by chance received such a name. 1857 is the beginning of the history of postage stamps in Russia. The postage stamp is a special document that tells about historical events that are reflected not only in the subjects of stamps themselves, but also in various overprints that indicate a change in state ownership or the form of government.
