Details

Ship mail with double, black imprint "SHIP" Stamped: This barely visible cancellation (bottom margin) is blue and, probably from "YOKOHAMA." The 30 Sen stamp as the maximum value of the Cherry Blossoms is probably unique with this SHIP imprint, (o) and in this perfect condition. Very sought after by collectors of Japan Ship Mail. The catalog value and the current trade value can therefore only be estimated roughly.
