    1853: France 40 c. orange imperforate, shaved to large margins all round used on 1863 Printed Matter cover from Brussels to Paris, with "Bruxelles Nord" despatch cds in black (Jan 3). The adhesive tied by "BELG. / VALENCIENNES" entry marking in red (Jan 4) with further strike alongside; however the franking ignored as 'Posted out of course' and charged as unpaid with handstruck '6' décimes due marking in black. A most unusual and attractive usage. Signed Calves.
