The wording of the Honolulu pmk. confirms that the U.S. postage was regarded as unpaid in Honolulu, either there was no U.S. postage present on the entire at the time of mailing in Honolulu or, if already present, the 3c in U.S. postage was treated as completely unpaid since the most likely rate charged would have been the 6c port-of-entry rate, still another possibility is that the 6c U.S. postage was paid in cash upon arrival in San Francisco and the single 3c stamp was then affixed to satisfy the Post Office's requirement that local carrier covers also be franked with the proper domestic postage - which would have been 3c. Whatever the proper interpretation, the San Francisco Post Office would definitely not have allowed any credit, whatsoever, for the prepaid California Penny Post Co. 5c entire, AN ABSOLUTELY MAGNIFICENT HAWAIIAN "MISSIONARY"-UNITED STATES COMBINATION FRANKING COVER, WHICH FEATURES A RARE HAWAIIAN "MISSIONARY", A SINGLE THREE-CENTS 1851 ISSUE U.S. STAMP AND A VERY RARE PREPAID CALIFORNIA PENNY POST COMPANY ENTIRE, MAKING IT BY FAR THE MOST VISUALLY ATTRACTIVE "MISSIONARY" COVER, CERTAINLY A UNIQUE USAGE photo
