1847: USA Franklin 5 c. red-brown on blued paper, a fine example with large margins all round, paying internal rate on small 1848 envelope from Oswego, NY to Paris cancelled by two strikes of PAID handstamp in blue with OSWEGO despatch cds (March 3). The cover not carried by a Contract Steamer but privately on board "un navire de commerce" direct to France with circular "Outremer / Le Havre" entry marking in red (April 4), where charged '6' décimes handstruck in black - a saving on cost of 90 centimes but a journey time of nearly two weeks more - with reverse showing 'Ligne du Havre' cds (April 4) and Paris arrival of the following day. Just two Transatlantic first issue covers are recorded carried in this fashion to France. A rarity.rnAusruf : 3.000 CHFZuschlag : 7.000 CHF -
