ZEPPELIN ADDENDUM

15 August 1929 (1 of 16). Delivered to the General Consulate in Tokyo and receive-stamped with official purple seal. Note the error in the “G” in the left 2 1/2 G stamp (206 II, field 41).

If you have this pair, check to see if this broken frame is consistent in position 42. Below is detail of 206 IL
