    1864 (May 11): Envelope from Madrid to Paris, bearing 1864 12 cu. green on bright rose, two fine and fresh single examples with large margins, tied together by oval barred '1' numeral obliterator of Madrid in black, matching MADRID despatch cds and French "ESPAGNE 14 MAI 64 St. JEAN-DE-LUZ" entry cds in red alongside. The cover was of the third weight rate but franked only for the second, therefore a "FRANQUEO INSUFICIENTE" handstamp in red was struck to the obverse and the item was taxed with '11' décimes to be paid by the receiver. Reverse with "ESPANA 12 MAY 64 IRUN" exit cds in red and indistinct arrival cds. An attractive cover.
