Mexico, 1897-98 "Telegrafo Federal" telegram form cards. Two different unused cards; one card with 1897-98 1c orange revenue stamp print and 10c to 5c revalued print at right, other a card with 1897-98 1c orange revenue stamp print with 1c red brown revenue stamp placed over and tied by violet handstamp, both with message form on reverse, Very Fine, these 2 cards of which very few have survived are the listing copies for the old Stevens catalog.
Estimate; $150 - 200.

Beginning in 1896 Documents and Libros revenue stamps were used to pay the 1c telegraph tax in Mexico city on postal cards. The reverse was used for the addressee and message. As confidentiality restrictions required their destruction by the Telegraph office no used cards appear to have survived.
