JU 14 1856 : The Spanish Postmaster in San Roque informed Edmund Cresswell Jr, the Postmaster in Gibraltar, that all future mail addressed to destinations within Spain would have to be prepaid by Spanish stamps (the 2d Gibraltar rate was more frequently paid in cash). This continued until 1875 when, on November 25, an agreement between Spain and Gibraltar was signed allowing prepayment of letters with stamps of the country of origin.

SPAIN/GIBRALTAR combination requiring Forwarding Agent, Gibraltar postal history (Ex MOELLER)
1873 entire headed "Cadiz 20th June 1873" to Poole, England with "p. Archbold Johnston & Power Gibraltar 24 June 1873" manuscript forwarding on reverse with GB QV 2d strip of three affixed and pmk'd "A26" with GIBRALTAR A/JU 24 73. No Spanish charge as sent in another cover to Gibraltar from Cadiz. Very rare as such, Ex MOELLER.
The Carlist Civil War caused intermittent interruptions to the overland route to the UK, and the maritime route from Gibraltar became a more reliable alternative but required the use of a Forwarding Agent in Gibraltar. (Of the Gibraltar/Spain adhesive combination covers currently seen 15 are ingoing to Cadiz, and only 4 are outgoing, all to Malta).
