Corinphila Auction 291-297 Day 4

1879/1884: Collection "Pacific War" on sixteen pages containing eighteen, both civilian and fieldpost entires, and forty-two stamps and pieces with postmarks from the newly acquired area and occupations beyond. An outstanding item is the 1877 10c blue bisected on entire from "ARICA" to "IQUIQUE" one of only a handful recorded bisects. Another interesting item is a printed matter from "MOLLENDO" to "CALLAO" without stamps due to none being available. A four colour franking from "LIMA" to "PARIS" with four different "Rouletados" stamps also deserves favour, despite being opened hastily. A great lot.
