    Mazatlan 8 r. black on red-brown, a fine vertically bisected example showing part vertical guideline at left, used as 4 reales and tied to September 28, 1861 cover to Puerto de Mazatlan by bold strike of wreathed FRANCO / EN / CULIACAN handstamp (Schatzkes fig. 760) in black. At this date Mazatlan had received 1'000 stamps of the 8 reales (the previous shipment being lost in transit), the stock of just 660 of the 4 reales having been exhausted. It is interesting to note that the voluminous sale of the Erich Koenig 'Splits' had no example of a bisected usage from Mazatlan. An extremely fine and rare Sub-Office franking. Cert. Jaretzky (1987).
