gray-green Straits Settlements Edward VII definitives were affixed
to the back, tied by two "SINGAPORE" (17 Aug) c.d.s., indicating
payment of the deficiency before the cover was returned to the UK,

on the front, with a same-dated "LONDON S.W." circular cancel on
the back; a further "LONDON" (16 Sep) double circle transit
confirmed dispatch to Berkhamsted (17 Sep), fine and scarce.
