SG38. 1859.
2d Blue. 'Lapirot' Issue. Intermediate Impression.
Superb fine used corner sheet marginal vertical pair (Positions 8/12) on cover to Bordeaux. Red 'SUEZ' transit c.d.s. and "8" decimes rate handstamp in black, plus "G.P.O./MAURITIUS/JY 9 1859" and both Toulouse and Bordeaux backstamps.
Position 8 shows reversed "N" in "PENCE".
Some faults, but a fantastic cover.
B.P.A. Certificate.
A Wonderful Sheet Marginal Pair. A MASSIVE RARITY!
