INDIA USED IN TIBET — 1955 REGISTERED COVER TO THE UNITED STATES — MIXED INDIA–TIBET FRANKING. Scarce registered cover posted from Tibet to the United States in 1955, bearing an unusual mixed franking of Indian KGVI and Archaeological
Series stamps, together with an imperforate pair of Tibetan stamps. An attractive and unusual example of the complex postal arrangements operating between Tibet and India during the 1950s, combining Indian and Tibetan adhesives on a registered
international cover. A desirable specialist item of India Used Abroad and Tibetan postal history, particularly appealing for its mixed franking and destination. (Image 1)
