16 øre brown/grey, tied by single circle "THORSHAVN 20/6" to parcel accompanying letter for a parcel of 40 qvint weight to Copenhagen and here re-addressed; the envelope with ironed crease due to which the stamp is defective, still an attractive and rare letter. This is the earliest recorded parcel letter from Faroe. Certificates Wowern (1989) and C.A. Möller (2003)
