Description: This is a Mauritius Pre Stamp Full Letter. It was sent from Mauritius to Cape of Good Hope on 5/20/1855. What makes this letter so special is not merely its age and condition, but the postal markings it has. It has a CROWN CIRCLE GPO MAURITIUS CANCEL in Black on the front, and a Cape Town Receiver in RED on the back. It was sealed with a red wax lozenge of the merchant sender. This cover has an 8 Manuscript on it for the postal charge. Cape of Good Hope is a VERY RARE destination! Please take care as this cover, while it is in fantastic shape, is still over 100 years old. This item is over $100 USD so I will ship it using Priority Mail in the US, and Registered Mail Overseas. This is to ensure that it reaches you in a safe and timely manner, and includes tracking!
