Thank you Kat! I figured it was part of the space mailing but wasn't sure. I love the architectural design so meticulous and the stamps are very unique. I don't have many from Russia. mystery solved:)

Wow...and postmarked 12.04.2011....that's the 12th of April, 2011, Diane!

The 50th anniversary date of Russian Cosmonaut Gagarin in Space, ....from Russia. 

Rare Postal history, me thinks!

Yes, definitely from Valentin in Russia, the original "thought" for the Space mailing. 

And that beauty of a linear design is also definitely Valentin's work! Fantastic!
