Francia 1871 - Ballon Monté: blue 20c "Napoleon III" canceled "PARIS R CARDINAL LEMOINE 6 JANV 71" on newspaper "Gazette des Absents n.22" to Douai, very likely carried by the "Duquesne". The text indicates two letters received in Paris. Very interesting and rare combination, ex Courtiois, Robineau certificate (Yvert 22 - € 1.280++)
