    1849: 10 c. brown, a horizontal strip of four used on 1850 cover from Brussels (Aug 10) to Mons with margins all round and just touched at upper left. The cover endorsed '26½'  but the original endorsement mis-read as '20½' grams and accepted, however this was noticed by the receiving Postal Clerk in Mons (Aug 11 cds in red on reverse) and the cover endorsed "Détaxée" and "5" in manuscript to collect. Balasse Magazine article (1977) accompanies the lot. An attractive and rare cover.
