CUBA

Covers and stamps / Cuba

CUBA: 1843 (Jan 30): Incoming envelope from France addressed to the General Consul of Tuscany with fine and scarce blue "EMPRESÀ / N. EUROPA" cds on front, red "Rebuts" handstamp to right, with handstruck '6' on arrival, the cover had been originally posted in August 1842 but appears to have been delayed and verified by the French postal administration bearing an official "Don Gle des Postes / oute pr Renseignements" cachet on reverse. Cover a little stained but full of interest.
