Upon arrival the PD handstamp was crossed out and the cover was taxed with '9' décimes. Attractive and interesting cover.rnNote: In October 1875, the GPU treaty was already in force in Switzerland and the majority of the European countries, while France did not join earlier than January 1st, 1876. The 25 rp. franking and the PD handstamp have therefore applied erroneously thinking that the GPU rate was also valid to the French P.O. in Alexandretta. However at that time point, the bilateral contracts where still in force with 90 centimes for an unpaid letter to a French P.O. in the Levant. The last part of the journey from the French office in Alexandretta to Aleppo was presumably done by courrier.
