    1848 (April 6) Castelfranco, Veneto: Entire lettersheet written by the postal clerk headed? Ufficio Postale di C'franco' and "Viva l'italia Unita! Viva la Libertà, Viva Pio IX" addressed to the Authority in Asolo, showing on reverse fine strike of the old Venetian handstamp of Castelfranco with the symbol of San Marco, 50 years after the official usage in the last period of the Ventian Republic (1796/98). Castelfranco together wih Marca Trevigiana joinded the Daniele Manin's 'Venetian Republic', which was proclaimed on March 22, 1848. Volunteers provided financial resources and more to the patriotic cause. The postal clerk in his patriotic fervor didn't want to use any symbol of Lombardo-Veneto and used this old postmark of the former Republic of Venice. So the postal clerk created by his enthusiastic patriotisme a pre-philatelic rarity. See also attached article written by Franco Rigo. Also Alfredo Banci mentioned the 1848 usage in his handbook under Castelfranco No: 65B. rated +++. An outstanding historic item.
