Losnr. : 6764 Italien
1868 (July 7): Envelope from the 'MINISTERO DI MARINO' in Firenze, directed to the Chief Commander of the Italian Naval Division of South America in Montevideo, bearing 1866 Torino printing 40 c. rose-carmine and 60 c. lilac, two fine and fresh adhesives, tied by light '12' numeral obliterator, FIRENZE despatch cds, "P.P." handstamp in black and French "ITALIE 10 JUIL. LANSLEBOURG" entry cds alongside. Reverse with blue cachet of the Italian Ministry of the Navy and "TORINO - SUSA" ambulant cds. Minor toning and some edge wear just mentioned for accuracy, a most interesting piece of postal history, the franking paying the 100 centesimi rate via Great Britain to the port in Uruguay. However the cover does not show any taxation for the last part of the journey from the port to the addressee (who was presumably at the port).Ausruf : 200 CHFZuschlag : 200 CHF
