U.S.
Dues Stamps Not Valid for Postage
in the
Philippines
1914
SEPTEMBER 16: MANILA to CHICAGO
Franked with
2c U.S. issue, subjected to 2c upon arrival.
The 2c Dues
is proper as the total dues is 4 Philippine centavos which
is equivalent
to 2 U.S. cents. I am sure that the auxilliary marking
"U.S. STAMPS
NOT VALID FOR POSTAGE" was applied in the Philippines.
which is a
seldomly seen marking.
