cover -- another example of this type, a very fine light strike, on entire letter from Bogota to New York dated 24 May 1855, showing good to fine black circular Boston Br. Pkt. c.d.s. and rated "1/-" in manuscript, the reverse with fine light Santa Martha double-arc d.s. and very fine blue fancy "Granados i Garcia, Sta. Mta." Forwarding Agent's cachet across the join; faintly toned fold clear of the first strike. This letter just missed the R.M.S.P. sailing by three days and did not arrive until 18 August, a transit time of 86 days. S.G. CC6. Photo
