Sepetibinha is another village that has disappeared from the map. The small settlement near Campo Grande was located south of the railway road to Santa Cruz, about 60 km west of the imperial capital of Rio de Janeiro. Today, the village belongs to the district of Guaratiba.
As Nova Monteiro writes in Administrações e Agencias Postaes do Brasil Imperio (Brasil Filatelico/RJ, 1934-5; Reprint SPP 1994-1999), there was a post office there from May 1867, but it was closed around 1882, still during the Empire, as Paulo Novaes reports in agenciaspostais.com.br. No postmark from there has been seen so far, it must be a rarity.
Sepetibinha ist wieder eine heute von der Landkarte verschwundene Ortschaft. Die kleine Siedlung bei Campo Grande lag südlich der Bahnstrasse nach Santa Cruz, ca. 60 km westlich der kaiserlichen Hautpstadt Rio de Janeiro entfernt. Heute gehört der Ort zum Stadtteil Guaratiba.
Wie Nova Monteiro in Administrações e Agencias Postaes do Brasil Imperio (Brasil Filatelico/RJ, 1934-5; Reprint SPP 1994-1999) schreibt, gab es dort ein Postamt ab Mai 1867. Allerdings wurde dieses ca. 1882, also noch im Kaiserreich geschlossen, wie Paulo Novaes in agenciaspostais.com.br berichtet. Bisher war kein Poststempel von dort zu sehen, er muss eine Seltenheit sein.
