Tibet
1912 The First Issue
Covers
1932 (29 June) incoming mail registered from Calcutta to Lhasa via Pharijong bearing on the reverse India KGV 3p. and 4a. cancelled by despatch c.d.s. At Phari for the onwards Tibetan journey it was additionally franked with Tibet 1/6tr. yellow-green and rare 2/3tr. purplish-lake, both shiny print, cancelled by Phari handstamp. The particular shade of the 2/3tr. must have confused the postmaster that mistakenly assumed it to be a 1tr. to pay the correct rate of 1.1/6tr. rate. A very rare combination cover. Photo
