  • Losnr. : 862 Ecuador

    First Printing Group 1865: ½ real ultramarine on slightly greyish paper, a used example with three huge margins and close at top right, thinned but clearly cancelled "Quito / Franca" datestamp "6 / ENERO / 65" - the sixth day of proposed issue and the second day of actual issue. Rare.rnNote: The earliest recorded date of use for the Ecuador first issue is 4th January 1865 on a ½ real used in Quito and also on a 1 r. orange-yellow. The 1st January 1865 was a Sunday and it is probable the stamps were delivered to Post Offices on the the following day and actually issued on the 3rd or 4th of January; certainly this last date marked the first shipment of adhesives to Guayaquil.
