    1855: 4 sk. blue, an attractive horizontal strip of four used on 1855 cover from Bergen to Hamburg, margins touched to very fine, unobtrusive file fold through first stamp, all cancelled by 11 bar grid handstamps. The grid was originally struck in error on the fourth stamp in blue, presumably from the 'Bergen' ink pad used for the circular town datestamp. The Postmaster, noticing the error, then applied second strikes of the grid in black in order to correct his original mistake, on all four stamps in the strip. Fine strike of DAMPSKIBET / BERGEN datestamp struck in blue-green ink (2/9) at lower left. Reverse with Danish P.O. in Hamburg arrival cds (4/9) in black. The 'Bergen' collided with the 'Norgen' and sank on the return journey from Hamburg. A remarkable and extremely rare cover. Signed Moldenhauer.rnrnProvenance: Harmers, London (March 1968), lot 468.
