cover 1864 E.L. to Vienna (16.9) bearing 1863 Arms perf. 15 3s. green (6), 15s. brown and 1864 perf. 9½ 5s. rose (2, one applied over a 3s. value and with small corner defect and the other applied on reverse), cancelled by straight-line "SERRES" d.s. (6.9, type 3) in blue, except one 5s. which is cancelled by "WIEN" c.d.s. Extremely fine and a unique franking. Irrefutably one of the most beautiful covers from the Levant extant. A ravishing showpiece of the highest magnitude and a gem for the connoisseur. Ex F. See. Photo in colour
