Notes
Red circle of V's (pinwheel) and matching Paris Ky postmark on piece. Wade Saadi exhibit frame 3 page 10
Maybe listed in Alexander. Cover on that date to unknown destination in Ky is listed but it’s hard to determine the destination from this piece. Damaged cover may have been reduced or there may be some indication on reverse. Alexander’s listing has no added notes indicating stamp on piece.
Robert A. Siegel Auction Galleries, Inc. sale 512 lot 26 realized 525
Alexander listed as 12/13/xx
Christie's sale 7726 Sep 28-29, 1993 lot 28 realized 3220
PF 276696
1a 1847 5c dark brown
ON PIECE, RED CIRCLE OF "V"S FANCY CANCEL, MATCHING "PARIS, KY. DEC. 13" PMK.
AND WE ARE OF THE OPINION THAT
It Is A Genuine Scott 1, Brown
