Japan

1872, 1 sen deep dull blue, plate II, middle period printing, perforation fault at upper right, tied by non-standard oval framed "Yamaguchi station" to a cover to Yoshida, Nagato Province. On reverse, vermilion framed non-standard "Suo Province Yamaguchi station / postal receiving and handling agency". No dateline, though usage is most probably Meiji 5 (1872).

A scarce and attractive provincial cover, distinguished by this unusual oval Yamaguchi station fancy cancellation.

Rate: Within 25 ri distance = 1 sen, second rate period.
