ALS: "Krusenstern" (three times, twice as "Admiral Krusenstern"), in English, 1p, 4¾x6¾. (Russia), 1841 November 16. To newly arrived U.S. Minister to Russia Colonel Charles S. Todd. In full: "Admiral Krusenstern presents his respectful compliments to His Excellency Colonel Todd & has the honour to return his most obliging thanks for the kindness to have forwarded Mr. Fenderich's lithographe print to whom he shortly will address a few lines.
