Maritime Mail of Spanish Colonies in America

Cuba Incoming Mail 1842 circa. Official folded cover from Madrid to Havana, with oval sender's cachet, at lower left, of the Supreme Court of Justice, with red oval "Correo Maritimo./N°. 1" handstamp (P.E. 44), and "32" reales due marking as per 3¼ ounces weight (despite official letters did not pay postage, the mail was charged in a special account to be compensated between departments). Slightly reduced at left, where some few worm holes are located. A very rare mail through the "Empresa de Correos Marítimos" paying a high rate.
