Notes
5c Red Brown (1). Horizontal pair, large margins to barely in, bright shade tied by contrasting blue grids and "Louisville Ky. Mar. 15/10" integral-rate circular datestamp on 1851 folded letter to New York, Fine, this is the right time and place for an 1851 Orange Brown usage, but in our opinion the color does not have enough orange-yellow
