06.04.1915 Feldpost card from K.u.K Otočaner Infanterie regiment Graf Jellačić No.79 to Lovrana (Lovran) on the east coast of Istria in Kvarner Bay. Mailed va Fp.111 that served 7. Infantry division fighting in Galicia.
Interestingly someone put a wrong date in the canceller and applied Fp. cancel on the right with wrong year and month in it. It was noted so cancel was crossed with blue pencil, and a new correct Fp. cancel is on the left. Sender is an Oberst(Colonel)in regiment and writes to his wife in Villa Else in Lovran, Villa is still in use today as an luxurious turist accomodation. Although surname on the card in Croatian, text is in German.
