Description

1876 small envelope addressed to Lyon bearing a fine mixed franking consisting of Japan 1874 2s yellow with small central circular cancellation, together with France Ceres 10c (3) and a 80c. cancelled by `5118` large numerals of Yokohama whose cds appear at base, red French maritime cds under 2s, some slight perf. imperfections due to being placed high at the top which is of little consequence for such a spectacular and rare combination. The item is illustrated in the work by Koichi on combination items.

1876: Très belle lettre de Mai 1876 expédiée de Yokohama (Japon) vers Lyon. Spectaculaire et rarissime combinaison d'affranchissement au recto de l'enveloppe Cérès YT n° 57 + trois Cèrès YT n° 58 + timbre Japonais 2 Sen jaune YT n° 15. Oblitérations GC 5118 bien frappées + cachet circulaire muet Japonais. Nous avons très peu rencontré une telle combinaison ; de ce fait, malgré l'état assez moyen des timbres, cette lettre d'exception peut être considéré comme une des plus belles raretés des Bureaux Français à l'étranger. Lettre répertoriée et illustrée dans l'ouvrage Koichi consacré aux affranchissements mixtes France/Japon sous le n° 47. TB. Signé Calves
