Swatow
British Consular Mail
1893 (4 Mar.) Hong Kong 1c. postal stationery card to Shanghai cancelled by a very good strike of the rare straight-line Swatow type D c.d.s. and, on the reverse, Shanghai Local Post c.d.s. (8.3) in black. A good example of this elusive Treaty Port postmark, Webb's Scarcity Guide records ten or less examples. Photo
