1810c.: Cover front to Antonio Alvarez Jimenez, Brigadier del Ejército in Chiloe rated '4½'
reales in manuscript with good strike of the very rare truncated two line INTERCEPTADA / DELIMA handstamp in red (Colareta fig. 1 = 100 pts./Tizon unrecorded). A rarity - this being acknowledged as probably the first Censor handstamp ever applied to
mail in the Americas. Walter Bose in "Signos Postales del Rio de la Plata" states that this marking was used during between August and November 1810 in the revolutionary period on mail from Spain destined for Peru and other interior provinces that
had been intercepted in Salta and returned to Buenos Aires. Cert. Moorhouse (2015).rnProvenance: Collection Dr. Hugo Goeggel, Corinphila sale 202, Nov 2015, lot 498. (Image 1) (Image 2) (Image 3)

paying the 1/6 rate for a letter to England, in combination with a 1866 20c. brown bisected for the inland rate, all tied by three slightly unclear strikes of the C38 obliterator of CALLAO. The letter is endorsed via Panama and bears the CALLAO
single circle on the back, as well as a receiving single circle of COLCHESTER. According to the enclosed certificate Potel, the combination with a bisected 20c. stamp is only recorded on three further items and was only used in October 1876. There is
minor wear on the cover but this nonetheless represents a rarity of both Peruvian Philately and British Offices Abroad. Certificates POTEL (2003) and Moorhouse (2006). (Image 1) (Image 2) (Image 3) (Image 4)
