2 MAILS on the same date & place...but addressed to different persons.
1949 July 23.... Travancore-Cochin (T.C.) period registered folded letter affixed with Travancore stamps from Thazhathagady, Kottayam(8 Karkatakam 1124) to Tiruvella....duly refused by the addresee & sent to Trichur where the senders address is.
The reason for affixing Travancore stamps instead, might be due to T.C. overprinted stamps of Travancore running short or stock not yet arrived.....hence only one T.C. 'One Anna' stamp seen.
Travancore & Cochin merged on July 1st 1949.
Very scarce.
