All stamps tied by HONDURAS roller and TEGUCIGALPA 24 OCT c.d.s. alongside, arrival postmark on backside. Some smaller faults (tears and creases in margins of the envelope) as to be expected for a franking of this size otherwise fine and of great rarity. Brian Moorhouse photo certificate, stating that only four covers are known bearing the 1 Peso stamp. A stunning and very desirable exhibition item, ex Irving Green. (M) (Image)
