Santander. 1889, 5c. vermilion, on small March 19, 1892 envelope from Pamplona to Bucaramanga (Pascual Moreno correspondence), very neatly tied by superb strike of ornate ´´República de Colombia/Departamento de Santander´´ handstamp in purple from the fiscal departmental office. A very rare franking, further enhanced by the extremely elusive cancellation with only about three examples recorded. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 11. Ex Cross.
