✉ NEPAL. 1908 (Oct.). Nepal/India combination cover from SIRAHA, routed via JAINAGAR/DARBHANGA (India) to KATHMANDU. The Nepalese 4 pice stamp paid the postage from SIRAHA to JAINAGAR. There, the cover entered the British-Indian postal system, was registered and delivered to the British-Indian P.O. in Kathmandu. The by-pass through India could have been rendered necessary by temporary disruptions of the domestic postal route. Commercial India/Nepal combination covers are VERY RARE.
