Los-Nr. 1652

1870 (23 November), folded letter from Albion Cottage, St. Helier, to Paris, franked with 20c. 1867 20c. blue, tied by neatly-struck Paris star cancel, with c.d.s. arrival backstamp (18 Jul, 1871), remarkably fresh and fine considering its arduous journey and the delicate nature of this flimsy paper, smuggled into Paris during the 1870/71 Siege.
