MARIUPOL (Ukraine): 10 kopeck brown and blue, cut into at base, otherwise clear to good margins, tied by pre-philatelic double line "MARIUPOL 19 JUNE 1858" to lettersheet to Odessa. This stamp with tiny corner crease at upper right, resulting in the tiny marginal tear. Still attractive and rare, just 2 further No.1 entires have been recorded with this cancellation.
