1921 Urga (Jan) to Sanchuanchen via Min Chu. Red band cover, privately carried to Kalgan and f.w. Junk 3c, tied by Kalgan (14 Jan) cds. Transit Taiyuan (17 Jan), Fenyang (18 Jan) with Min Chu vertical seal on reverse for forwarding to Sanchuanchen. Urga Chinese PO was closed in Jan 1921 due to political chaos and the latest example recorded by Hellrigl was dated 18 Jan 1921. This one was not posted at Urga Chinese PO probably because the PO was already not functioning normally by that time.1921.1.21 庫倫經民信局寄三泉鎮。紅條封，先私遞至張家口，再貼帆船3分，銷1.14張家口日戳。1.17經太原，1.18經汾陽，鈐“晉汾永和長分莊東口書”民信局直戳，以送至三泉鎮。庫倫中國郵局於1921年1月關閉，Hellrigl記錄最晚之信封為1月18日。此封未經庫倫中國郵局投遞可能是由於當時郵局服務已受限。經民信局轉遞更是難得。

Transit Troitskosavsk Russian PO (9 Mar) with Hellrigl type 1b cds, Arrived St. Petersburg (21 Mar). Although Kiachat Chinese PO operated for over a decade, existing examples are very scarce as Hellrigl only recorded 29 examples and AVA reocrded a few more.
