Losnr. : 6432 Sardinien
1860: 20 c. blue, two fine and fresh single examples with good to large margins, well embossed, each cancelled by French framed PD handstamp in red (Sassone = 10 punti), on cover from Genova to Cette. Obverse struck by an additional PD and French "SARD. 10 JANV. 61 MARSEILLE" entry cds, both in red. Reverse with French ambulant and arrival cds (Jan 11). A very early cover in the newly established Franco-Sardinian postal treaty of January 1st, 1861. This treaty reduced the rate for a letter up to 10 grams to 40 from 50 centesimi, independent if the item made its journey with a steamer or overland. Horizontal file fold just mentioned for accuracy, an impressive cover given directly to the steamer in Genova, while the Sardinian adhesives were not obliterated earlier than in Marseille. Cert. Raybaudi (1994) Sassone = € 360 + 2'100.Ausruf : 200 CHFZuschlag : 850 CHF
