1770-1810: Royal Mail, Province of Santa Fé & Bogotá. 1795 (April 27): Way Bill for a registered letter, seemingly sent unpaid and therefore contrary to regulations, headed "Certificado" at upper left and clearly dated at top alongside fine strike of NUEVA GRANADA (Tizon 7 = EXT) in red. Reverse with weak strike of DEVE mark again in red. The registration fees for letters of up to one ounce within the Province were 3 reales, within the Viceroyalty, 5 reales. A rare document and very probably the item noted by Manuel Tizon for his listing.
