Jamaica: The Vendryes Provisional
                                         First setting: double overprints used on covers.


            Use of first setting, one with double overprint, on registered cover from Claremont to Kingston, 1890.



                                                                                                Two 2½d provisionals,
                                                                                                both from setting 1:
                                                                                                  at left, position 8; and
                                                                                                  at right, position 7,
                                                                                                  overprint double.
                                                                                                5d rate (1d internal
                                                                                                postage, 4d registration).
                                                                                                Claremont:
                                                                                                  24 November 1890.
                                                                                                Kingston registered:
                                                                                                  25 November 1890.








                   Late use of first setting with double overprint on cover within Kingston, perhaps philatelic, 1892.


              2½d provisional from
              setting 1, position 8,
                overprint double.

              2½d is not a correct
              rate. Internal postage
              was in multiples of the
              1d single rate.

              Kingston:
                9 March 1890.
