1866: 10 pa. brown, perf. 12½, a used block of four on 1867 cover to Cairo paying thje 1 piastre rate, tied by three strikes of "POSTE VICE-REALI EGIZIANE / ZAGASIK" cds's (June 21) in black with information strike at left. Reverse with Cairo arrival cds of the same day. The cover was mailed during the 1 piastre stamp shortage period at the end of June 1867 when the 2 piastre stamp is found bisected in Cairo and Alexandria - it appears by this franking that the shortage also occurred in Zagasik. Small patched repair to envelope at top and one back flap missing but a very rare block on cover. Signed Otto Müller, A. Diena, Holcombe. Cert.
