已知唯一贴红印花邮品寄玻利维亚
This postcard emanates from a correspondence of 200-250 postcards and a few covers sent from all over the world to Nicolaus Schütt, a stamp collector from Itzehoe, Germany, who was in Sucre between 1892-1898. As such, one often encounters overfranked items. Two postcards from China are known from this correspondence - the above card and 1897 (27 Dec.) I.C.P. 1c. postal stationery card from Chefoo uprated with I.C.P. 4c. (overpaid by 1 cent) and sent through the U.S. Postal Agency in Shanghai (sold by Interasia Auctions, 6.12.08, lot A17). It has been suggested that the sender of the above postcard was not aware of the letter rate, which could be why the card is overfranked.
Nicolaus Schuett是一名德国集邮者, 他收集了从世界各地在1892-1898年间寄给他的200-250封信或者明信片。其中有2件寄自中国。分别为此明信片和邮资片加贴4分邮票(超资1分)从烟台(1897/12/27)经美国邮局。由此可见寄信人并不了解邮资,所以超贴了。
