Sweden. Utlandsanknytning. Great Britain. Partly prepaid letter sent from GÖTHEBORG 12.9.1847 via KDPA ALTONA 15.9.47. Postage due notation "1/8" (sh/d). As there is no indicated payment of any transit fee for the post office in Altona it must be concluded that such a charge was included in the postage marked as “fr. Altona”. There is no valid rate in 1847 which can completely explain how this letter was handled by the Post Office in Gothenburg.
