"Dose & Kopstadt / Le Havre & L'Anvers" Forwarding Agent's cachet in blue. Blue Southampton tranmsit cds (April 1), thence per Steamer "Parana" to Panama. Struck on arrival with rectangular framed "E" handstamp (probably = Estangero or
possibly E = Europa) applied in Callao (Emsing fig. E155), however the marking is very scarce and its use has yet to be fully determined. An unusual and rare usage. Provenance: Collection Dillemann, Paris, 21-23 Dec 1931. (Image 1)

cancelled by dotted "CAXAM" handstamps (Lamy & Rinck fig. 13) in black. Vertical file fold and small imperfections with sensible restoration to the front at lower left for Exhibit display, but an astonishing multiple on letter, believed to be the
largest known single franking of this stamp (H. Moll lists the two ex Klaus Eitner strips of eleven only, also used from Caxamarca, Corinphila sale 158, June 2009; it has to be mentioned that this strip is the more attractive of the three multiples).
