Lot 6837
Local letter sent April 10th 1889 within Stockholm franked with 4 öre Stockholm's City Post's postage stamp. By mistake, the sender put the letter in the ordinary letter-box instead of in the special one for the private Stockholm City Post. The letter was handed over to the City Post which was charged 5 öre. The City Post stamped "Lösen 5 öre" with RED straight line cancel, and that amount was later to be paid by the addresse on reverse, franked with 5 öre Stockholm 10.4.1889. Most unusual item.
