Severouralsk

Severouralsk, or Североура́льск, is a town in the the north Urals in the Russian Federation.

While Severouralsk might have issued a Zemstvo back in the day, it does not issue its own stamps these days. That did not stop the counterfeiters who saw that Severouralsk had the status of okrug and went ahead and fired up their printing presses. Sometime in the earlier 1990s, old Soviet Union definitives were surcharged. So far, we have only found one issue with Североуральск and showing various owls. No recent topical issues have appeared, so we remain thankful of that.  File:Severouralsk owls on russia (1).jpg
