    Tepeji Del Rio ½ r. blue, a huge large margined horizontal pair tied to cover front to Mexico City by fine strike of two line FRANCO EN / TEPEXI DE RIO handstamp (Schatzkes fig. 1617) in red.  During the period of the first issue Tepexi was a Sub-Office and used stamps overprinted in Mexico City. Chapman states 'All stamps are rare' from this District. Fine and very scarce item.

    Note: On three Invoices between 1856 and 1861, Tepeji Del Rio received just 720 of the ½ real. In April 1861, upon the issue of the new series, Tepeji returned 288 examples. Thus in a five year period just 432 of the ½ real stamps were sold.
