GB QV SG.87 Cover *VIA DA MARE* CANCELLATION 9d 1d Red 1864 India Maritime Mail Via Italy 245c
REMARKABLE USAGE of an ITALIAN SHIP LETTER marking employed in transit as an additional cancellation on GB 9d + 1d red franking. MOST UNUSUAL THUS. The GB adhesives initially cancelled by very weak MANNINGTREE (Essex) numeral. A VERY UNUSUAL ORIGIN for India destination mail. Slight faults as can be seen but overall attractive and a very interesting usage of the 9d Straw (Plate 2). Overall Very Good/Fine for an item of this type & period. Please look at all the scans to help form your own opinion. Priced & sold with all faults considered (WAF).
