    1855 (Sept 7): Entire letter written from the Chincha Islands to Boston, USA struck with supereb framed "VAPOR" and oval framed "ISLAS / DE / CHINCHA" handstamp in blue (Colareta unlisted), with 'Steamship / 20' of arrival in black at right. A fascinating letter written during the "Guano Rush" period with contents stating that the local manpower has returned to Pisco to their farms and "Last voyage...there was plenty of guano...this voyagee little guano (but) I have on board 800 tons...I want three more men to come home with..I have to steal them from some English ship bound for Callao...". Just three covers known with these markings, a wonderful entire.
