AN EXCEPTIONAL 1851 ISSUE COVER TO SWITZERLAND PREPAYING THE 30¢ PRUSSIAN CLOSED MAIL RATE TO GERMAN BORDER ONLY.

As long as one full Prussian Closed Mail rate was paid, a letter would be sent paid to the GAPU border with the addressee responsible for any postage due. The two-line "Franco Preuss: resp:Vereinsl:Ausg:Gr." handstamp (Paid to Border of GAPU Member Prussia) was used on such mail until mid-1860, when a three-line handstamp superseded it. Goldach and Emmishofen were in Rayon I next to Germany, so actual postage due was only 3 kr or 10 rappen (2¢). Est. $1,500-2,000 (Image)
