  • Lot# : 812 Nepal

    1955: India 1 r. deep dull green, a used block of four cancelled by the sole recorded example of the "INDIAN EMBASSY (NEPAL) / PAR" (Parcels) circular datestamp (19 Aug 1956) in black. Believed unique - most Parcels were sent registered from Nepal and thus the 'Parcels' datestamp appears never to have been put into circulation with the exception of this multiple. See Hellrigl "Nepal Postal History", page 144.rnProvenance: Collection Armand Singer.
