1916 (15 Jan) Large official cover from the Viceroy of Yunnanfu to the Governor-General of Burma, Rangoon, f.w. Native Girl surch YUNNANFOU

1916 (15 Jan) Large official cover from the Viceroy of Yunnanfu to the Governor-General of Burma, Rangoon, f.w. Native Girl surch YUNNANFOU with Chinese value x3, tied by Yunnanfu French PO cds, along with R mark. Transit Singapore (2 Feb). Arrived Rangoon (11 Feb). Very scarce usage of ROC official cover via French PO in Yunnan. Using “5th Year” instead of Hunghsien “1st Year” is also interesting as Yunnan was the first province to fight against the Hunghsien Empire. 1916.1.15 大型公文封，由雲南總督寄緬甸總督，貼土女圖加蓋YUNNANFOU連中文面值3枚，銷雲南府法局日戳，旁鈐R章。2.2經新加坡。2.11抵仰光。經雲南法局寄出之民國公文封，十分稀罕難得。同時寫有年份“民國五年”而非（洪憲）元年同樣極具歷史意義。

1922 Yunnanfu (5 Sep) to France, f.w. Native Girl surch YUNNANFOU with Chinese value x2, tied by scarce single ringed “YUNNAN-FOU

1922 Yunnanfu (5 Sep) to France, f.w. Native Girl surch YUNNANFOU with Chinese value x2, tied by scarce single ringed “YUNNAN-FOU CHINE” bilingual cds. Transit Haiphong (9 Sep). It is the last type of Yunnanfu French PO cds and was in use only for months before the closure of Yunnnan French PO on 31 Dec 1922. J. Desrousseaux did not record any example of it. It is also a very late example of this post office. Cover roughly opened at left.1922.9.5 雲南府寄法國，貼土女圖加蓋YUNNANFOU連中文面值2枚，銷少見之雲南府法局“YUNNAN-FOU CHINE”單圈日戳。9.9經海防。此為雲南府法局最晚一款日戳，僅使用數月，J. Desrousseaux未有記錄任何例子。雲南府法局於1922年12月31日關閉，故此亦為較晚例子。封左側打開。
