    1870 (April 13): 'Trencito' 5 c. scarlet, a used example with good margins all round, used on 1870 cover to Lima tied by "Callao" circular datestamp "10 MAY 870" in black - a very early usage of this stamp on letter, certainly the earliest this describer has recorded. 'LIMA / 7A / DISTRIB.N' handstamp above in blue. An exceptional usage. Cert. Eichele (1999).
