Lot 10115 – 1843, 60r black, intermediate impression, on letter from Cuiabá with a late usage

1843, 60r black, intermediate impression, very fresh with large margins on all sides including outer frame line at left, on reverse of 3 October 1852 entire letter to Rio de Janeiro, tied by « CORREIO GERAL DE CUIABA/18- » in magenta with inserted date in manuscript (Ayres 1139). Two light creases passing through the stamp but of little consequence and cover slightly cleaned as usually found. The letters from Cuiabá -six recorded and all with the same franking- are highly desirable as these represent the latest usages recorded in the « Bull’s Eyes » issue (the latest being 13 March 1854). Cert. Juchert (2001).
