Description
1817 Stampless entire from Switzerland to the Cape of Good Hope, well before the introduction of postal handstamps in the region, addressed to Capt. Gallien de Renaud stationed at the Cape, the entire contains three pages of correspondence, offering valuable historical context. Some toning consistent with age is present; nevertheless, a scarce and desirable pre-handstamp incoming cover, seldom encountered in such complete form. Auction
