Europe and Overseas,Olympic Philately and Memorabilia - Day 2

1859, 2½c olive green, 10c red-orange, stone A, in mixed franking with second issue 10c yellow-buff, all with ample to mainly huge margins, tied to piece by "Call./Franca." blue oval handstamp of Cali (featuring "Call" instead of "Cali" in error). Illustrated on page 55 of Dieter Bortfeldt's "Colombia Philatelic Handbook and Catalogue". The only example known of a three-colour franking exhibiting the first and second issues (otherwise just very scarce bi-colour combinations are recorded); of greater significance if it is considered that only two additional three-colour frankings on piece, but only exhibiting the first-issue, are recorded, and that the first and second issue are not recorded used in conjunction on cover. Ex Toro Pinzón.
