| Lot 9. Cover sheet, Jacmel 24 January 1847, to Bordeaux with VF strike of Gonaives negative oval Paye marking. On the front is a strike of the British “Colonies & ct. Art. 13” and on the back flap arrival markings for London and Bordeaux. Charged in France 45 decimes. By Haitian post to Jacmel where it was picked up and carried, according to ship schedules, by the Royal Navy Steamer “HERMES” to England. Overall about fine. Horizontal file folds, one passing through the Gonaives marking but nicely ironed out. The Gonaives oval is nice. The remainder of the item is about good to fine. | |||
