Norwegian Missionary Society 1894/95: 5 v. black on white wove paper, imperforate, a used example cancelled in manuscript "29/4 96" in black ink, applied to cover to Miss Karoline Nilsen at Fort Dauphin. The cover, signed by Peter Holcombe and Roger Calves, is believed to be forged, largely it appears, due to the hand-writing and was turned down by J.F. Brun. This cover sold "as is / tel quel" is priced for a used example of the stamp Facit = 3'000 Skr.
