The local issue of 1920, caused by the revaluation of stamps in circulation at a ratio of 1:100, was a manual overprint in violet ink of the letter "r" on Russian postage stamps of 1, 2, 3, 4, 10, 15, and 20 kopecks, as well as on a savings stamp of pre-revolutionary Russia of 1 kopeck.
The establishment of the uyezd town of Danilov in Yaroslavl Governorate was the result of an administrative reform carried out in Russia in the second half of the 18th century. On February 23, 1777, Empress Catherine II signed the decree "On the Establishment of Yaroslavl Governorate", whose first governor-general was Privy Councillor Aleksey Petrovich Melgunov.
A significant number of provisionals are associated with the Civil War of 1918-1922. At that time, there was no stable central authority across most of the country, many regions became independent, and due to devastation and war there was considerable inflation. Frequent tariff changes and the inability to supply the postal network with stamps of the required denominations led to periodic revaluations of existing stocks in accordance with instructions of the People's Commissariat of Posts and Telegraphs of the RSFSR, which did not provide for any overprints. However, in some localities certain post offices still applied overprints to the revalued stamps being sold, or simply wrote on them by hand. All these stamps are distinguished by an extremely simple overprinting technique.
