1897 (11 Aug.) red band cover to Shanghai bearing Large Figures 2c. on 3c. just tied by Canton pa-kua with a good strike of Canton Dollar chop alongside and, on the reverse, Shanghai arrival Dollar chop (18.8) and a good strike of Shanghai straight-line Don't Demand, Don't Pay struck in red. Some light soiling barely detracts from this good combination of postmarks. F.Z. Chun handstamp on the reverse. Photo
