Shenyang: 1906 (5 Aug.) red band cover to Peking bearing C.I.P. 2c. red tied by Shenyang lunar c.d.s. and, on the reverse, a good strike of the very rare Shenyang number 7 tombstone handstamp with oblique lines background, partly overstruck by the arrival c.d.s. Some minor ageing does not detract from this highly important cover. Ex Peter Paget (illustration 53). Photo
