    Austrian Shipmail, Lloyd express line Venice - Trieste 1854/58c.: Group five covers / entires from Venice to Trieste, bearing Lombardo-Veneto frankings, tied by clear boxed "DA VENEZIA / COL VAPORE" datestamps in both types existing (Tchilinghirian fig. 8 & 7 / Sassone fig. 1 & 2). Includes Sassone type 1 on 15 c. red in a horizontal strip of three on 1855 cover to Klagenfurt, on 30 c. brown to Trieste, and on pair 45 c. blue on double rate cover to Baden nearby Vienna; also type 2 on 1858 10 s. tied to cover to Parenzo and on 1858 15 s. blue to Spalato. A most appealing group.rnNote: The terminology for this datestamp is quite confusing as Tchilinghirian's type 1 (fig. 7) is type 2 in Sassone and vice versa.
