While the Viennese post offices had been previously named after streets, places or buildings, they were allocated a serial number after the further incorporation of Viennese suburbs into the City on 1st January 1892. A somewhat larger Registration Label was issued (43x18 mm), which as well as the R, WIEN, the post office number, and the item number prefixed with 'No.', also had the postal zone number in a narrow vertical box on the right. The Registration Labels were used in this design to 1938, with only minor changes in detail.
