Third day of usage 1849: Cérès 20 c. black on yellowish paper, a fine and fresh example with good to large margins, tied by type 15 "MIRANDE 3 JANV. 1849 (31)" cds on the third day of the issue to envelope with full content a clear information strike alongside. Directed to Toulouse, reverse with arrival cds of the following day. A fine and fresh adhesive on attractive small-sized cover, well documenting the very early usage of the first French stamp. Signed Calves Yvert = € 2'500 / Maury 3 = € 3'450.rnNote: During the two first weeks of January 1849, the cancellation of the newly issued stamps was not well organized. Two circulars by the Postal administration led to confusion in the Post Offices on the methods of obliteration. A planned cancellation by a grill obliterator was not available prior to the third week of January.Ausruf : 500 CHFZuschlag : 500 CHF
