    1872/1935: Collection of the Postal Stationery of Chile in seven volumes, consisting of over five hundred pieces with many good and unusual items, such as a 112 x 73mm Specimen of the 1872 2 c. local envelope, which remained unissued due to the ship "TACORA" sinking with the entire print-run of 263'000 envelopes. The issued items also contain some exquisite items, one being the 1893 and 1895 postcards with private prints from the Swiss Society and the latter with some highly decorative German-Austrian-Swiss Society print on the reverse. There are also many attractive additional frankings, as well as a postmark collection on the 1885 Columbus 5 c. violet envelopes. Very attractive lot.
