    1864: Cover front endorsed 'via Ostende & England' addressed to Henry Brincourt, Governor General of the Puebla & Tlaxcala District in Mexico,  franked by 1858 24 ö. yellow (2) and 50 ö. carmine-rose (six examples) all cancelled by WARBERG datestamps (28/9) in black and one stamp by oval 'Hamburg' transit (Oct 1). Manuscript '28½' credit in blue and faint 'London / Paid' cds also on the battered front, however it appears the franking of 348 öre is complete (even if nearly all are creased or defective) and the piece is certainly the sole recorded example of Swedish mail to the French Expeditionary Force in Mexico.
