1896 I-chang cover to the border town of Kerong despatched from Tingri where it was taken across the border to Rasuwa and with a good array of Nepali postmarks with Kathmandu and Trisuli transits. The cover has suffered some staining and rough handling; a delightful cover with a lot of character. One of only three such covers recorded. Photo
