1930-1950s Registered wrapper to Gyantse, f.w. Tibet 3rd issue 2t in pair, in total of 4t registered rate, tied by faint h.s. Probably the only known registered wrapper used in Tibet. As the Tibetan postmarks are usually dateless and the related documents are missing, it is still a puzzle for philatelists to ascertain the chronicle of Tibetan postage, not to mention the registered rate.1930至1950年代掛號包裝封皮寄江孜，貼西藏獅圖第三版2章噶雙連，合4章噶掛號郵資，銷模糊戳記。很可能是西藏唯一之掛號包裝封皮例子。西藏郵戳大多沒有日期，相關文獻亦從缺，掛號郵資之調資仍有待探索。
