French "Paq. Angl. / Marseille" entry marking in red (Dec 13) and Paris arrival cds (Dec 15) in black, where charged '10' décimes to pay in manuscript. An outstanding entire for the Maritime Postal Historian with this being just the second example of the "ALEXANDRIE / MOBILE BOX" datestamp now recorded (the other is on a cover franked by French adhesives dated 19th November 1859 and also used to Paris). A rarity. Cert. Todd AIEP (2023).
