Airmail instructive label with Greek text in black on light grey/blue label, 58x39 mm, issued by the Hellenic GPO:
“Αλληλογραφήτε ΑΕΡΟΠΟΡΙΚΩΣ / Η προσηρτημένη επιστολή έφθασεν ενταύθα ταχύτατα, διότι απεστάλη αεροπορικώς. Απαντήσατε δια του ιδίου μέσου. / Δια πάσαν λεπτομέρειαν απευθύνεσθε εις τα Ταχ. Γραφεία ……”. [Exchange letters by air. / The attached letter arrived here very quickly because it was dispatched by air. Reply by the same means. / For every detail, please contact the Post Offices ….].
Five varieties are known in the second paragraph; the last one is shown here on the last line: “.)” instead of correct “).”.
Used first by the post offices in Athens (December 1933); later at Piraeus, Patras, Ioannina (March 1934), and Drama (May 1934).
