Expreso Caribe

So far I know nothing about this service which apparently operated in and about Barranquilla for Cartagena, if one can judge by it's name.

Newspaper clipping from "El Tiempo", 4. May 1931

Again, judging by it's design it was an express parcels service yet the 'label' calls itself an Estambilla - i.e. a stamp- and as for a mere 5 centavos which could securely be for anything heavier or more bulky then a letter. On the other hand it's dimensions seem a little large for a letter.
