    3 bani violet (Transfer type 3) and 1869 15 bani red (Transfer Type 1), large margins all round, tied by "BUDEU 19/7" (1870) ornamental cds in blue (Kiriac A62 fig. 369) to entire, sent to Bucharest with arrival cds on reverse. Although issued for internal Printed Matter mail, the 3 bani violet was used also as additional franking to make the 15 bani red of the 1869 "international issue" usable for the 18 bani inland rate. Some archive folds and slightly toned but a rare and scarce item.
