    Mexico City 4 r. black on deep yellow and 1 r. black on deep green, fine four margined examples used on outer letter sheet dated APRIL 19, 1861 from Mexico City to Durango (docketing of receipt or reply May 1). The adhesives of brilliant colour and sharp impressions, cancelled by circular FRANCO / MEXICO datestamps '19 ABRIL' and thus a FIRST DAY COVER of the 1861 ISSUE. According to Samuel Chapman and Abraham Odfjell April 20, 1861 was the day of supply and it has to be surmised that the datestamp had not been changed. However, without doubt the earliest recorded usage of the issue on a fine and most attractive cover with a rare 5 reales franking. Cert. Jaretzky (1988).

    Provenance: Filatelia Mexicana (May 31, 1988) lot 2263.
