Lot 179 Canada #118 10c Bistre Brown, King George V, 1911-1928 Admiral Issue, Single Usage on February 1933 Double Weight Cover to Switzerland

A very fine cover, sent from Ottawa to Switzerland on February 3, 1933. Franked with a single of the 10c bistre brown dry printing Admiral, paying the 10c double weight UPU rate. This is a quite a late usage of this value, which was first issued in 1925 and replaced in 1928 by the 10c Mt. Hurd. However, there is no indication of this being a philatelic usage. Est. $35.
