Dort wurde die Frankatur nicht anerkannt und der Brief unfrei via Transit Beyrouth und Brindisi in Genova zugestellt und mit 2 x 60 C italienischem Nachporto (GENOVA, 17 GEN 74) belegt. Sehr seltener und aussergewöhnlicher Beleg! ÷ 1874, 25 Kr grey-lilac, tied by manuscript notation of postage fee "Lire 1,20", single franking on entire letter from Alexandrette in Egypt to Genova in Italy.

The austrian franking was not accepted, the letter treated as unpaid and sent via transit Beyrouth and Brindisi to Genova, on arrival charged with 2 x 60 C italian postage due stamps (GENOVA, 17 GEN 74). Very rare and exceptionel cover!
