Description
1855-60, The Codina collection of local mail service of Havana overprints, an outstanding collection of ten genuine covers with these iconic stamps showing the Y 1/4 overprints. The collection includes three covers franked by very fine and well margined stamps, 1x Scott 6 (2r orange red on partial front, one of only 4 to 5 usages known), 1x Scott 7 and 2x Scott 15. The other seven covers show fine stamps with only slightly touched margins, including a rare Scott 5 (signed Doane 1938 and cert Carlos Echenagusia Garcia), another Scott 5 on folded letter, a Scott 7 on fresh cover, another Sc.7 on cover front and two Sc.15 (one bought at Soler y Llach auctions for 660€). In addition a very fine Scott 15 on cover which we consider dubious. A unique opportunity to buy a collection of ten letters showing the famous ”Correo Interior de la Habana” Y 1/4 surcharge.
