Reverse with 'Cape Town / Cape of Good Hope' cds in red (June 21) of despatch and Bourg Sur Gironde arrival datestamps. A particularly attractive and rare cover. Signed A. Diena.

    Note: The rate to France in 1859 was 7d. per ¼ ounce and 14d. (1/2d.) per ½ ounce. In 1861 this was to rise to 8d. per ¼ ounce and 16d. (1/4d.) per ½ ounce. It appears this cover was either an over-payment of 5d. or an underpayment of 2d.
