    1925: 1 Anna brown, tied by very rare "TUERIJ" double circle on underfranked picture postcard depicting the customs house and endorsed printed matter to the US. The stamp has a couple of short/missing perfs. Due to the underfranking the "TUERIJ POSTAGE DUE ONE ANNA" mark is also applied. On the address side a transit mark "HILLAH" and a "NEW YORK 6 CENTS DUE" cachet can be found together with two pre-cancelled "GARFIELD NJ" postage due stamps. A very scarce card. Proud = 250 pts.
