Denmark #91 [7 ore green typographed Wavy-Line] on 1928 printed matter rate cover (reduced size but looks completely natural) from Denmark or mailed aboard a Danish ship, to AKUREYRI, Iceland. Machine canceled in REYKJAVIIK and with superb strike of boxed "Skipsbrjef" mark, indicating incoming ship mail. Also with AKUREYRI cancel as the cover was forwarded to SIGLUFJORD. An extremely unusual usage. A bit worn as one might expect. ACTUAL item. |
