Enigmatic 8 thick bar cancel (20 mm), with blank space inset, probably a trial run?
One Chuckram envelope is 1890 (die type 11)...destined to reach Mutham (Muttom) Lighthouse, which is 5 k.m. from Rajakamangalam...addressed to C. P. H. Plummer, Sub Divisional Officer, Light House, Muttom.
Rajakamangalam Anchal office was operational only for a few months from 1064 (1888-'89) to 1065-'66 (1889-'90). Then reopened as Village post office, later in the year 1078 .
The envelope is devoid of despatch & delivery frankings.
