This is an Austro-Hungarian postal stationery card issued in the late 19th century. It features an imprinted 2 Kreuzer brown stamp depicting the imperial double-headed eagle of Austria, with the inscription K. K. Oesterreichische Post (Imperial Royal Austrian Post). The card is addressed to Vienna (Wien) and bears a cancellation from Novoselitz (29/7/89), a town located in Bukovina (then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, today in Ukraine). A receiving mark dated 30/7/89 is also present on the front, confirming its transit to Vienna.

The reverse side contains a neatly written handwritten message in German, dated 29 July 1889, offering a fascinating glimpse into commercial and personal correspondence of the time. These postal stationery cards were introduced in Austria in 1869 (the world’s first postcards) and became a widely used medium for both business and private communication.

For collectors, this item is notable as an authentic 19th-century Austrian correspondence piece with clear postal markings, a well-preserved imprinted stamp, and historical ties to the Austro-Hungarian postal system. Its connection to Bukovina also adds regional postal history interest.
