EUROPE & OVERSEAS | Day 4

1867/74: 10 s. blue and 15 s. brown (4 examples), used on 1875 entire letter to Marseille tied by "LLOYD AGENZIE / COSTANTINOPOLI" datestamps (11/11) in black (Tchilinghirian fig. 446). 'A./ P.D.' in black below with Avricourt entry marking in blue (Nov 17). Reverse with 'Paris / Gare de Lyon' cds and Marseille arrival (Nov 18) in black. File fold well away from the adhesives, a few trivial scuffs but a fine and very scarce example of the 70 soldi double rate.
