Description : Beautiful cover - Postal cancel 12 APRIL 1961,
exact day of Gagarine launch + purple club rubber stamp
Vostok 1 Tcheliabinsk City club (no club can exist without official government authorization).

We can see two philatelic anomalies on this document :
1- the Gagarine stamp was emitted official date April 13, but was available in real life in Tcheliabinsk on April 17 : postmark on Gagarine stamp was done at a later date. (up to 60 days are authorized in astrophilately)

2- in Russia there should not be two stamps and postmark on the front of a cover. The bottom postmark (central post office of Tcheliabinsk) is the postmark of ARRIVAL, this specific postmark must be on the back of the cover and without stamp, those rules are pretty strict. However the club has influence and was granted some special arrangements with local post-office. The arrival postmark is optional in astrophilately.

The top postmark is from post office number 10 of Tcheliabinsk city, this is the START postmark.

This document is a page of history, and tells his own story. The postal anomalies, for example the Kourou postmark of Red color, are of the most wanted kind.

Value can also be given to this document according to your own interpretation of astrophilately.

Thanks goes to Magnus_z for additional informations.
