We all know the Phantom knows no boundaries.... so before the year ended, his furtive shadow might have been seen dropping a cover or two in a Post Office at Chisinau, Moldova's Capital.... Danke Sehr, Alex!

It is obvious that the cover had not an easy transit from the East until it landed on my letterbox, still it got here, and that is really what matters.

A single stamp 10,30 lei souvenir sheet dedicated to the National Museum of Ethnography and Natural History of Moldova, illustrated with a lithograph of the Cathedral Plaza of Chisinau, by Carlo Bossi, a Bohemian artist born in Prague, who lived between 17337 and 1798, a work which presumably is part of the museum's collection.

Postmark from the Capital, Chișinău.
