    1869: 15 c. blue & brown, Type II, a used example on 1869 cover with complete contents from Philadelphia to Paris, initially cancelled by black cork with "PHILADELPHIA / PAID / 12" credit cds in violet (Dec 10), carried on the French Paquebot "Pereire" with octagonal "ETATS-UNIS / PAQ. FR. H No. 1" datestamp (Dec 11) struck in red (Salles fig. 1713). Both these cancellations deleted in manuscript, as was the adhesive, when the cover was forwarded unpaid to EGYPT with "Forwarded By / Drexel Harjes & Co. / Paris" cachet in blue. French P.O. in Alexandria arrival cds (Jan 9, 1870) in black and charged there on arrival with '6' décimes handstruck in black. An extraordinary destination for the 1869 issue and a spectacular usage.
