1904 Tali (9 Feb) to USA, f.w. Coiling Dragon 10c, tied by Tali PO handfilled d.s. Transit Siakwan (13 Feb), Tengyueh (21 Feb). In combination with Indian QV 1/2a in pair + KEVII 1a, tied by Bhamo (1 Mar) cds. On 1 Mar 1904, China and India reached postal convention by which combination franking was no longer required for mails from Yunann taking Bhamo route. This cover, dated 1 Mar upon transit at Bhamo, hence historical. Probably the latest combination mail from Yuann with Indian stamps, not to mention fewer than 20 such combination mails exist according to the record of Mah Lang Moe.1904.2.9 大理寄美國，貼蟠龍1角，銷大理郵政局手填日戳。2.13經下關，2.21經騰越。加貼印度票3枚，銷八莫3.1日戳。1904年3月1日，中國與英印簽訂郵政協議，雲南寄出經八莫之郵件毋需再混貼英印郵票。此封正是於當天於八莫中轉，故極具歷史意義。混貼英印票之雲南封片按馬蘭茂記錄存世應不過二十件，此件可能為最晚例子。
