French Post Office: 1895 (7 Sept.) printed ½c. card to Beira, South Africa cancelled by a good strike of the Kewkiang dated oval with France "Chine" 5c. pair tied by "shang-hai/chine" c.d.s. (11.9) with a fine strike of "customs/shanghai" (10.9) in blue, Hong Kong (14.9), Tuticorn (1.10), a faint strike of Mozambique (20.11) and Beira arrival (23.11). A superb and rare card to this unusual destination, particularly appealing with all the postmark on the front. Photo
