Scott #51, NK #77II, Facit #77II [1899 10 øre Carmine, Plate II, Knudsen Print, Perf 14.5 x 13.5] (F-VF+) on 28 September 1909 HOTEL ADVERTISING COVER with "CHRA-BERGEN G" SHIP cancellations, to Ch(K)ristiania. Arrived in KRISTIANIA on the 30th with "TUR 1" (first delivery of the day) receiver/delivery-dispatch machine postmark on reverse. Wonderfully ornate thin-paper printed-inside show-through advertising, front and back, for Hotel Victoria in Stavanger. Norway has a very limited range of advertising covers; items this ornate are rarely offered. Extremely fine quality -- a superlative item in every way. |
