via Air France Registred 1936 Romanian Ministerial Mail, from Bucharest to RCM, front

Savel RADULESCO or Rădulescu (October 19th, 1885 - August 27th, 1970, Bucharest)
was a romanian Diplomat.
He started his career in 1921, and worked as Secretary of Nicolae Titulescu at the League of Nations.
He was also Undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in six Governments, from 1932 to 1936.

The ministerial Mail above corresponds to the second Gheorghe Tătărescu Government Period, and was sent from the "Royal Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Romania" in Bucharest, to his summer House on the french Riviera, the residential Grand Hotel du Cap Martin.

This Hotel was built in 1890 by Hans-Georg Tersling, on a plot bought by George Calvin White, subject of Her Gracious Majesty the Queen (The White, from 'The Black&White' Whiskies).
It accomodated distinguished Guests, like Franz Joseph I, Emperor of Austria and his wife Empress Elisabeth, almost every Summer.
The Guests of ex-Empress Eugénie de Montijo, Napoléon III's wife, also stayed there during the Building of her Villa.
In 1933 and 1934, after important fire Damages, it was renewed and transformed.
Nowadays, it belongs to the Municipality of Roquebrune-Cap-Martin (aka RCM) as a "listed joint ownership property".
