In total there are over twenty-five complete letters to Argentina, one to Paraguay and one redirecte to Uruguay. There are also receipts for postage paid for telegrams and an advice of delivery. A fabulous lot of postal history of this interesting area, almost exclusively commercial, together with an album of the stamps, including the odd block of four.
