AVRIL 50 CALAIS" entry cds in black, oval "P F" handstamp in red alongside, reverse with London transit (April 13) cds in brown as well as straight-line arrival (April 17) datestamp in red. Upon arrival the entire was taxed with '10' decimi as the franking paid only the postage to the French-Sardinian border, following the opinion of Peter Holcombe the manuscript note on the stamp was applied at the same time. An interesting part paid cover, opinion Holcombe (1996) Gi = £ 3'200.
