His brother entered Senneh in April and May 1912 and overprinted the available stamps with a handstamp in Persian “Al-Soltan Mohammad-Ali Shah Qajar”, when the outgoing mail with these overprints reached Hamadan the Post Master enquired for instructions from the authorities in Teheran. The result was to return all mail with the instructional Rejection Notice text from Teheran written on the envelopes in blue crayon.

Envelope from Senneh manuscript Arabic date 13 AP 12, franked with a 13ch blue and violet (only 13 known – Provenance E Joseph), sent to Constantinople, but returned with the instructional text, very fine and very rare
