El Gran Expreso

No details are known about this service other than this cover and a few stamps with the cancel of the company.  As from the few stamps cancelled with the postmark of that company it appears they had agencies in BOGOTA, ARMENIA and MANIZALES.

Surprisingly, i discovered two stamps with a different (round) postmark from "El Gran Expreso" used at Cali and Neira. Is this company a different company but with the same name or the same as this one???

The same Postmark as above in violet color on Colombian National stamp
