    1847 (Jan 12): Entire letter from Valparaiso endorsed "p. Vor. Nueva Granada" at top, struck with "VAPOR PERU / P" in red. This latter marking was used as the "New Granada" had only just arrived from England on January 4, 1847 - this being her Maiden Coastal voyage, and no handstamp had been supplied. The Steamer sailed on Jan 13 and arrived at Callao on Jan 21. Internally annotated 'Nouvelle Granada' at top of letter. A remarkable entire.
