Hereunder, I report comments sent by Radim about that cover what explains use of russian stamps
"The postmark has the Name of city and region: "Počta Rossii / OPS Soči 354000 / Krasnod.[ar] kr.[aj]". All letters collected in Sukhumi are moved by company "Abkhazsvyaz" to Sochi. Abkhazia is not UPU member, therefore they use Russian Stamps and are cancelled in Russian city Sochi. Usually, mail from Sukhumi is unrecognizable from mail sent from the Sochi city.
However, your cover shall have postmark on backside, with exception of one cover, all so far received covers have postmark of the Abkhazian Post in Sukhumi on back side of cover . I asked my friend who visited the Sukhumi to ask for the Sukhumi postmark. The postal clerk said that he can't apply Sukhumi postmark on Stamps on International mail, but can apply one on back side of cover."

Jan Potocki (1761-1815) polish traveler, writer, politician, archeologist, etnographer. He took part in many private and official journeys. For the first time, he visited Spain in 1779. His famous work - the novel "The manuscript founded in Zaragoza". This kind of literature has many names, one is "fantastic fairy-tale" - with ghosts, hanged persons, frenzied princess ... another is "costume comedy".
As the first Pole, he took part in the ballon flight - may 14, 1790 in Warsaw.
On the basis of this novel there is a movie (1964) - with the same title. Martin Scorcese found it as of the most important Polish movie.
