Zacatecas 8r. Lilac, quadrisect in combination with two 1r. Yellow, mainly good margins, tied by Fresnillo h.s. to an attractive cover addressed to Guanajuato; horizontal filing fold that does not affect the stamps. While this cover may have been professionally cleaned, this is not mentioned in the opinion; however, we note it for accuracy. Very few covers exist exhibiting a split of the 8r. used in conjunction with a complete stamp of any denomination. MEPSI certificate. Scott 2, 5d.

provenance: James P. Mazepa
