Description
1875,1 sen brown, two examples cancelled with “Zeifusoku” handstamp in red denoting insufficient postage, applied as postage due on 1 sen blue folded stationery card, cancelled by “Kiban” ne-14 from the Kobe P.O. (Settsu Province), addressed to a location near Amagasaki, with corresponding double type KG -.5.5 cds on reverse. Card with insect damage at bottom left and slightly reduced, with some very small tone spots. The address “Owari Province Chita District / Nishinoura Uchiumi” was located out of the Amagasaki regular delivery circuit, consequently it was underpaid by 1 sen for the delivery charge, so 2 sen had to be paid as postage due. A scarce usage. (JSCA ¥300,000).
