Local letter franked with Black local stamp 3 öre plate II and Provisional stamp type 3 öre sent January 27th 1862 within Stockholm. Backstamped "LOKALBREF 1 STA TN 27.1.1862" From January 1st 1862, when the brown provisional stamp for local letters was introduced, it was no longer permitted to frank any local letters with black local stamps. According to a proclamation dated December 19th 1861 the manager of Stockholm's letter box service departement had to affix a brown stamp, without cost for the sender, to all local letters, which already had a black stamp affixed. Certificate HOW (2001) and Nils Svensson (1984). Most interesting and unusual combination.
