Hallo Skalar,

zum Tchilinghirian kann ich zwar nichts sagen, aber ich habe ein paar Zusatztipps:

* ein guter Einblick ist TRANMER "AUSTRIAN Post Office Abroad" Teil 8

* Samsinger "Morgenland & Doppeladler" eine Orientreise um 1900 - da geht es sowohl um die Post, aber auch um einiges mehr, was damals den Orient-Reiz ausgemacht hat ...

* außerdem gibt es von Wurth ""Österr.orientalische Post durch Balkan etc." - dürfte ähnlich wie die anderen Werke von Wurth gut lesbar sein.
