    1885 (Aug): 5 c. green, plate III, perf. 13½, a used example in combination with New Dies 1886/87 1 c. vermilion on pale yellowish (2 examples), on 1887 cover at single rate to Paris, cancelled "Holsatia" in violet manuscript (Hapag Line) and again upon arrival in Le Havre with five strikes of the "Le Havre / Seine Inferieure" cds (April 17). The number and placement of the cancellations indicates that a further (3 c.) adhesive had been lost in transit but the cover was accepted as fully paid. Part back flap missing and trivial soiling but a rare and most unusual cover.
