Lot# : 5507 Peru
1820: Colonial entire letter from Lima to Madrid, struck with superb "FRANCA / LIMA" handstamp in red (Colareta 16 - earliest recorded use - Tizón unlisted) and certainly one handstamp rather than two. Internal docketing of receipt (Jan 30, 1821). No indication of rate but crossed as prepaid (at 3 reales de plata). External mail is rare in this period, when Spain was losing it's control over Peru.Starting bid : 150.00 CHFHammer price : not sold
