Manuscript notation above the adhesives with instructions to send the cover to Buena Vista by 'Special Delivery' (sin tocar otra Oficina de Correos) as Buena Vista had no Post Office. Further strike of FRANCO / EN TONALA handstamp on front of the cover which shows some faults. A truly remarkable and extremely rare 16 reales franking. Cert.
