MANILA CIRCULATING

VERY SCARCE

This is perhaps the cleanest cover that I have seen with Madrid - Manila Airs high values, postmarked May 13, 1926, first day of issue. 

The big surprise here is that this is a Philippine kept cover. It is free of any topical stains most especially on the perfs. I am using a scanner from the Jurassic period which leaves  a light yellow tint on the cover. The cover is superb!
