1852, (Aug 20) quadruple weight large format unpaid envelope from "SAINT LOUIS AUG 20" via "NEW YORK AUG 24", there charged with "80"c., transported with the "Franklin" via Southampton, Ostende and Bremen, where it was weight at "2 3/4" (=triple weight) and the two-line "AMERICA ÜBER BREMEN" was applied, to Neckartailfingen where the recipient was charged with "2f33". A attractive and rare letter that vividly illustrates the different weight progressions through the American ounce and the German lot
