1876: Très belle lettre de Mai 1876 expédiée de Yokohama (Japon) vers Lyon. Spectaculaire et rarissime combinaison d’affranchissement au recto de l’enveloppe Cérès YT n° 57 + trois Cèrès YT n° 58 + timbre Japonais 2 Sen jaune YT n° 15. Oblitérations GC 5118 bien frappées + cachet circulaire muet Japonais. Nous avons très peu rencontré une telle combinaison ; de ce fait, malgré l’état assez moyen des timbres, cette lettre d’exception peut être considéré comme une des plus belles raretés des Bureaux Français à l’étranger. Lettre répertoriée et illustrée dans l’ouvrage Koichi consacré aux affranchissements mixtes France/Japon sous le n° 47. TB. Signé Calves
