1870 (Oct 8) Entire from Jersey to Reims with 3d tied "409", black "PD", most unusually with red octagonal "ANGL. B.M / GRANVILLE" datestamp probably applied in error for the "Iles-C" c.d.s., backstamped Granville A Paris (Oct 9) and upon arrival at Reims (Mar 29). Unusually detained due to the Siege of Paris and then apparently overlooked as it was not delivered until two months after the siege ended. A couple of minor stains, otherwise fine.

1870 (Oct 14) Small entire letter from Jersey to Paris franked 3d, black "PD", backstamped Brest A Paris (Oct 18) and Paris (Feb 25), delayed due to the Siege of Paris, finally delivered four weeks after the siege ended. Addressees name removed and a little reduced at upper edge, otherwise fine, a scarce item that displays well. Photo on Page 194. (Image1)

1870 (Oct 23) Small entire letter from Jersey to Paris franked 3d, black "PD" and red "ILES-C / ST MALO" c.d.s, backstamped Calais A Paris (Feb 24), having been delayed due to the Siege of Paris and finally delivered four weeks after the siege ended, fine and scarce.
