Scott #108, 136 [M-17 Saarinen Lions: 1917 10 mk Unwatermarked, Perforation 14; 2 mk Watermark Swastika, Perforation 14] (VF) on 31 May 1927 domestic parcel card from "TURKU 2 / ÅBO 2" (bilingual bridge type cancellation) to SALO (bridge posthorn type receiving postmark on reverse, received the same day) for one 6 kilo parcel stated to contain COFFIN / CASKET SUPPLIES; the sender name translates to the Nordic Wreath Factory. On the left side is die cut, illustrated (dog and child tugging on something) brand label "BUSTER BROWN HOSIERY". The 12 mk postage paid the correct rate for a 6 kg parcel (9 mk for 3-5 kg, plus 3 mk for each additional kilo; 1 July 1924 thru 31 August 1942). An overall superb example; the 10 mark stamp is "quite scarce" on any type of cover; this example is very lightly, attractively canceled. ACTUAL item. |
